Teams Knockout Tournament II (looking for participants)

Post by Graham Banks »

There will again be 8 teams.
Each person taking a team must select one engine from each of the four groups below to make up their team of 4 engines.
Each group theoretically has a very even spread of strength so that those choosing later than others are not disadvantaged. In fact, the final two entrants to enter and choose their teams in the first tournament both made it through to the final!
As before, if an engine author wants to participate, they can choose their own engine as of right (if it's listed). If a previous entrant has chosen that engine beforehand, that person will need to choose a different engine from that group.
All engines are 32-bit 1CPU.


Group A (select one engine)

Pepito 1.59
Matacz 1.4
Yace 0.99.87
Anatoli 0.35k
Quark 2.35
BBChess 1.3b
Counter 1.1
Bruja 1.9
Amyan 1.597
Trace 1.37a

Group B (select one engine)

Typhoon 1.00-358
Crimson 1.0
Critter 0.38
Post Modernist 1016
Delphil 1.9g
Homer 2.01
Dirty 0.99-OW5
Snitch 1.6.2
Pupsi2 0.07
Muse 0.899b

Group C (select one engine)

RomiChess P3k
NanoSzachy 3.4
Dragon 4.6
Horizon 4.4

Come on now, don't be shy! :wink:
I'm sure that a number of you are familiar with this range of amateurs, but for those who aren't there are plenty of rating lists and tournament websites that could help you make a selection. :P

I was thinking it might be best to wait and try to be the last team picked ;)
Besides, It's not easy to find songs for some of these.

Muse: "Sick Muse" by Metric
Horizon: "Dark Cloud on The Horizon" by 101 South
Queen: "Queen of Sheba" by Saraya
