Hi Dan,

Or anyone here that knows about Bison's playing style. Please tell me more. Here is a logo I created.

Well I can say the engine looks very promising. It played a 40 game 2 minute blitz match with SmarThink 1.10 and the result was a draw. CCRL 40/40 had the previous version of Bison 8.2.4r rated at 2381 and SmarThink 1.00 rated at 2800

You can download the games here.

Yeah,the improvement is between 300-400 Elo....
There is a x64 version of the engine compiled by Dann Corbit,it may play a little bit stronger....
