Thanks for testing KnightX 2.7
But I see that you use a time control of 60s/game + 0.6 sec/move
My program does not support a fractional time for the increment time, so it uses 0 for the increment time
In the Winboard protocol, the increment time is in seconds
In the UCI protocol, I guess that you use it, the increment time is in milliseconds, but I divide the value by 1000 to obtain a value in seconds...
Please considers that my program is penalized for this particular time control
I will fix this problem in the next version of KnightX

You're welcome!

Yes, I used the UCI protocol. Unfortunately, I didn't know that KnightX 2.7 does not support a fractional time for the increment time.
That is of course a handicap. Should I remove this version from the rating list and test the new version as soon as it is released?

Yes please.
My program is a Winboard program from the beginning.
I haven't fully implemented the UCI protocol. I will write the missing things in the release notes
