23RD AMATEUR SERIES (Division 4)

Intel Q6600 Quad Core

Ponder off
Perfect 2010.cgb book
40 moves in 32 minutes repeating (adapted for the CCRL)
4 cycles 44 rounds
All engines 32-bit 1CPU

Due to some engines being retired before the next series unless new versions are released, the top two engines are likely to gain automatic promotion. There will be no automatic relegation. The third top engine and the bottom engine (perhaps others also) will play grading matches to determine which division they will play in for the next series.
