are you using the Team Fight feature of ChessGUI in these matches ?

Cheers,
Matthias.
Not for these two tournaments. I'm playing them as Round Robins with two cycles.
I used the Team Fight feature for the teams knockout that finished recently.

Cheers,
Graham.

Just wanted to know that the feature is occasionally used :wink: .
I like it, but only use it occasionally. It's a nice feature to have.
Have you considered having a knockout tournament option available?

Cheers,
Graham.

Tie-breaks make knockout tournaments difficult to program :( .

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

Okay. You've done a great job anyway with what's there.
Does the Swiss tournament option work okay?
