Greetings,
After a fair amount of inspiration thanks to Olivier Deville's ChessWar tournament, Myrddin Alpha 2 is now ready for public release.
The engine still probably plays only 1600-1700 against other engines, at best. It's performance in the tournament was 6.5/11, with a 1655 performance rating.
You can download the latest version, plus find out all about it and even read a short tournament "journal", by going to:

Many thanks again to Ron Murawski for hosting the site, and to several other brilliant people for guidance and inspiration.

Funny! I hadn't noticed that.
Actually, in earlier versions of CM, Slick was rated much higher (low-end GM). But the Producer for CM9000 said that there needed to be more mid-range personalities and "volunteered" all of the team members' avatars for readjustment.

Very interesting engine.
I have play a few games with it and it would be a very good
training engine for players with rating around 1700.
Best to you,
Gerold.

ah.. didn't realize that...
I have CM_7... I'll see if I can find the cd(s) and see how your personality plays...
Your personality is one of the better ones to play against...
