Hammer of Thor V Started (40/120) Swiss 24 Engines 7 Rounds

Post by Martin Thoresen »

Hello everyone,

here's the big swiss tournament involving all engines in the Hammer of Thor rating list.
See this thread for info: http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13226

Fritz 10 had to be excluded because it's not compatible when running
Zap!Chess 64-bit. So CM10th Eagle II replaced Fritz. I gave it 2650
as an initial rating (that's the number the rating list is based upon).
