Yes, Smarthink. Most interesting engine by Lokasoft.

The author is still working on his engine but at the moment he is doing his time in the army so things go slow.

Good to hear, Lex. Lokasoft is good for the competition, and from your stable have come very interesting engines, maybe not top-5, but with intriguing playing styles.

Best regards,

Ktulu 9 noted for my 2008 shopping list. Rahman Paidar may need some mammon after the service :) . Just hope the army won't make Ktulu too aggressive :wink: fireworks is fun, but the (over)positional/boring Rybkas and their likes defend against testosteroneous attackers with ease nowadays. OK then, maybe a next Chess Tiger could pull that one off but i doubt it. Needless to say, Tiger is by definition on my shopping list.

Cheers,
Kaj
