IMPORTANT:
Let me be sure everyone is on the same page here concerning ties and tiebreakers, so there will be no disappointments. Just in case a programmer does not know this. If Engine B and Engine C are tied for 2nd- there is only 1 tiebreak rule: You take Engine B- he gets all the points of the engines he beat, and half the total points of the engines he drew. Add those together and get a total. Then do the same for Engine C- and compare. The one with the highest number of points is the 2nd place finisher. That is the tie break rule that chessbase guis use- and the reason you see a number to the right of an engine's score in a crosstable if it is tied with another engine.
But these numbers, when compiled- could be the same. More often not- but still possible. In that case- a 1 game playoff between the engines for 2nd place.
Now to rounds and results- with 2 rounds remaining. (And congrats to KnockOut!)

They are playing as we speak. Last I checked, looked as if Chesley was holding fairly firm, and ChessMind was making a solid run to catch him. Problem for these other engines, I do not think any of them can beat Chesley's tiebreak score. I am thinking it is likely a tie with him for 2nd would not be good enough. So to overtake him- an engine would need to pass him- instead of just catch him. But we shall see. When I know- you will know. Now this is what makes me love these freeware tourn. and matches!!
Stay put- more to come from 4 other RRs-
