Hola Sergio,

You should include Colossus. I think is the strongest free english chess engine.

Carlos

Hi Carlos

Same question about Colossus. Im testing it. This computer is new and I must test some games before I add. But at the moment all is right now, so we will count with Colossus too. :D

-Congrats to Martin Bryant for the victory of Colossus.

-Congrats to Tom King,Tim Foden and Andrew Williams.

-Colossus is the champion and will plays Individual WB-UCI Championship (more information later). Four first engines (Colossus,Francesca,Green Light Chess and Postmodernist) will play Teams WB-UCI championship and could be "B" teams (depending on teams number at the moment of start the tournament, I will explain all in a separate topic).

-Could be a B Team, so rankings 5 to 8 would play in it.

Special thanks to Ivan Urwin :wink:
