The new version of Delphil is much improved and will climb higher in the rating list 8-)

My vote is for Danasah

And this is not a reaction to the unfortunate name of the tour... Inquisition was an European "institution", not only spanish... 8-)

Hi Andres,

the name of the tournament refers to DanaSah being the highest rated engine on our lists at the time the field was selected.
It was referring to DanaSah being the inquisitor as in being the one doing all the talking.
I expect it to do well.
Sorry if the name cause offence as no offence was intended.

Regards, Graham.

PS - DanaSah 3.13 seems a good improvement over previous versions. 8-)

Yes, Delphil favorit.
Most interesting engine is Zeus. Solid knowledge, but very slowly.
