Alaric, List, Movei.

It seems that this is going to be a walk in the park for Alaric, but anything can happen in this very fast time control.

Hi Alessandro,

Are you sure about picking Crafty?It doesn't matter at all if you picked 3 engines that someone else had picked,you just would give him 0.5 points more that's all and maybe you'd get more points with some better engine.Maybe Crafty plays well,but I doubt if it can get anywhere near top 3. :)

Thanks,Dr.Wael :)

But Have you played Quake Multiplayer in Local Arena Network?That rocks!
I used to defeat the strongest Quake guy back in college,He plays extremely well and is a genius in mouse movement and jumping and fragging .

Guess we are in same level with you playing at hardest level and me beating that guy :P

Quake 4 needs faster hardware and it's improved and has good ratings overall voted from users.

Quake is the best game ever,Period! :D

:P

I always play at the hardest level,without cheating 8-)
I remember that I rolled on the two versions of Unreal at the unreal level,but I am not experienced at the multiplayer area :D

Hi Swami,
as I'm new to this contest and I need time to "adapt", I'm currently picking some engines that I simply like. In the previous contest it was Postmodernist because it uses the MTD(f) search, an algorithm that is only used by Kiwi, SOS and Gothmog IIRC. Now it's Crafty because it was the engine that started it all for me... Hopefully it will also bring home some surprise points! :-)

Alaric, Ruffian, Pseudo (go czech, go :D ). Not know Bright, little know Movei. Jonny is bad for short time, my guess.
Btw., Bright - download avalaible, or private engine?

Hi Pavel,

Pseudo is the top seed so I guess it is a good pick :),I'm surprised that no one has picked it in their top 3.

Bright is not available for download,It is a dutch engine from Allard Siemelink who gives engines to testers who run it in their tournament.

Movei is available for download and you can refer some rating list for its strength such as CCRL 40/4 for example and my 3rd edition,that alone would give you a good idea I guess.

Regards.
