Thanks to the authors of chess22k, Ethereal, Fruit Reloaded, Dirty and The Baron (plus any other people who visited) for taking an interest in the broadcast.

Congratulations to Gunnar for Bobcat's win.

Close one! A few improvements and a little luck and perhaps Ethereal will edge out #1 or #2 next time around.

Thanks for testing,
Andrew Grant
