The Flight Of Icarus

[hgm]

After another game where everything worked normally, the tourney (or at least the transmission) now stalled completely. It just shows the final position of that game.

After another game where everything worked normally, the tourney (or at least the transmission) now stalled completely. It just shows the final position of that game.

It's a ChessGUI fault. On the odd occasion, the GUI will fail to start a new game, usually once a tablebase adjudication occurs.

A miraculous escape in round 26 - Fischerle saw itself already at -4,74 (in fact, below -4 for a series of plies) before it eventually managed to swindle for a draw at moves 57 and 58:
