Thanks for the tournament, Graham! Myrddin played a bit better than expected, and it was fun to watch, as always.

Cheers John. Always nice to see you and other authors taking an interest.

Graham, thanks for running the tournaments! Still working on and off on Donna 3.0 to stay competitive in Div/5 - no ETA yet though.

I also have Donna engine ported from Go to C. In my tests Donna Vista runs about twice as fast at ~1.2M nps. Needs some cross-platform stuff added, not quite ready for prime time yet

Best,
Michael

Sounds like good progress.

Yes, many thanks Graham for organizing and running these tournaments ! Orion didn't get a high score, but it was a pleasure to compete against other engines. Congratulations to all the authors ! I hope to release a new version by the end of the year, if time doesn't miss
