Hi,
I watched version 1.2 - I will download 1.2b now.

If you have the same strange behavior with the 1.2b please post the tournament conditions.

For those interested we have just released the new version of our chess engine BlackMamba.
There are a lot of news "under the hood"

Sounds wonderful, if you don't mind I will add it to my monththy queue on OICS.

While I maintain about 6-8 "core" solid engines, I try to switch 5-10 our each month including new ones.

BTW http://www.olympuschess.com/tourney for OICS, basically a 24/7 computer-only chess tournament, with varying controls and always a time increment.

I now have a 3ghz 1-core dedicated to playing it right now. Curious how it pans out and adding to my queue of engines to play

Thank you Matteo for this nice contribution! This will surely be an engine
to fear in the future

Already now you have to choose his logo carefully, when you play some
games vs the Mamba... I mean staring at a logo with this gruesome snake
can seriously afllict your own level of play )

40 moves in 10 minutes, ponder off, 8 move book, Shredder GUI:

BM starts with 3s 2s 4s - and Gull with 7s, 16s, 17s
