Halfway done. Three engines are running for the promotion,
while other three are for relegation. A very close race.

Best,

I'm still hoping that NanoSzachy will challenge the top two.
At the other end, it's just a case of which order the bottom two will finish in. I can't see them recovering.

[Aaron Becker]

Great results from Daydreamer so far; I'm very happy with its performance. It looks like it will be a close race to the finish.
