I'm having problems with getting Mediocre 0.33 to load (won't create as a uci engine) and Firefly 2.2.2 (which is loaded okay, but fails to start thinking after leaving book.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Graham.

Okay - I've replaced Firefly 2.2.2 with Clueless 1.4.

Mediocre 0.331 works fine under the Fritz 10 GUI and will be included. Thanks Jonatan and Jim.

Hope the tournament is of interest to some of the engine authors!
It would be nice to hear from you.

Regards, Graham.
