Thanks for your interest in the tournament Jens.
I thought that both Dabbaba and ProChess might have done better.

Good result for Cupcake, did better than I expected.

Hi Graham,

I am not able to run Monik here, so maybe I am missing something important in the wb2uci.eng. Is it possible to share your working version?

Thanks, also for the tournaments of course .
