Yes, this is what I thought, but no harm mentioning what I saw.

Wow ! ChessGUI has moved from Temp to its own directory ;).

My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.

Team fight pairings and gauntlet pairings work fine. Haven't tested the Swiss pairings.
Also how can you load a logo for a winboard engine?

Looks like the algo is still unbalanced if colours are not alternated.
Alternate and all should be fine ;).
Looks like the place to load logos is bad for WB. I will move it to engine installation window in version 0.090.

Done in new version 0.089 and added 3 required logos

Hi Graham,

You can set Processor Affinity in Windows to say OS what process only use 1 cpu

For instance in Windows XP Professional to set it up:

1. Access Task Manager.
2. Choose the Processes tab.
3. Right-click the process.
4. Select the Set Affinity command.
5. From the Processor Affinity dialog box, clear one of the CPU check boxes.

I hope this helps.
Best Regards

I also started experimenting with ChessGUI, but, unlike Graham, I tried to use the gauntlet format. However, it seems that all the games are played by the same two engines. And, they don't alternate colours although I ticked that box.
This is version 0.089.

Hi Gabor,
I am restructuring pairings and scheduling, so gauntlets will be fixed soon.
Best,
Matthias.
