Thanks Graham, nice matches !

Thomas...

iCE did well after a slow start. This version definitely looks stronger. Good work on your part.

[tpetzke]

Thank you, in the past year I put a lot of effort in. So I'm glad iCE did fairly well. Especially since here in D5 it usually faces 64 bit engines against which it probably has a small handicap with its 32bit bitboard code.

Almost 150 Elo better by the looks of it.
