Rising Stars and Fading warriors! Finally! :wink:

I think Bugchess and Colossus should belong in the Fading warriors because they were created in the 80's/90's.

They're not fading though. They're still being developed. That was the criteria used for selection this time around.

Thanks Matthias. It's a pleasure using your fine GUI. :D
Hopefully others are also prepared to try it. I guess you'll have some sort of an idea from download numbers?

Cheers, Graham.

Hi Swami,

I'd like to know where you got that info :shock:
BugChess2 started its life in 2004-2005 and i have worked on it continuously enough since. I do not intend to stop working on it any time soon even if i have much less time (due to my other "3-week old son" project :wink: ).

I had written a first naive windows attempt at a chess program in 1995 named BugChess - this one sure is an oldie, but BugChess2 has nothing to do with BugChess, they share 0 line of code (and 0 bugs :D), my latest program is a complete rewrite - i just kept the name as i liked it (or was it laziness ?).

Cheers

François
