Sorry for the delay, we had a computer virus outbreak at work yesterday, and they cut off the internet connection all day as part of the containment measures

BigLion now officially resigns the match, with an eval of +13.07 (advantage white)

Thanks everyone for participating, it has been a blast. The chess960 opening phase was fantastic, then the forum played a great game to bring BigLion to it's knees. I thought this game might have been a draw, but the forum was too good ! :)

Final position

[d] 1n1qr3/8/1p4p1/2prP3/2P2Qp1/R2k3P/6P1/6K1 b - -

Thanks, Ray and all other human participants.

Thank you, BigLion, though you pondered against the rules.
Your ponder bug shall be fixed.

Matthias.
My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.
