Thanks, this went well for iCE. Shared first place with the new strong Atlas. Not bad.

I thought the old Naum 1.91 64-bit was going to steal the win, but it lost its last two or three games.
Good to see both iCE and Atlas doing well.

A very well-picked selection of engines, Graham, and some great chess on display, likewise.

Cheers,
CL

Thanks Carl.

These engines certainly do produce some great chess, but many are oblivious to that.
