Very close results for Phalanx, Bionic, Crafty and LGoliath.
Bad, bad, once more time again ( with me ) to COMETs. Why?
Horrible to The Crazy Bishop, for the first time for me. Dear Frank: I´ll send you the PGN games of my Drake WB 01, 02 and 03, if my son not delete this! Bye, bye...

You probably need to get a more up to date version of Comet, I think B04 is the latest Comet Winboard engine, see the geocities download page.
Also your Crafty and Phalanx are somewhat old, good programs none the less.
I like seeing Phalanx come out on top like that, I like Phalanx allot.

I agree with Frank. The CometB00 isn't that strong. The old A96 and B04 seems to be somewhat stronger, esspecially B04. There's a 0043 version of TCB and sometime soon, according to Remi, a 0044. The 0043 plays very solid chess, no matter what time controls is used. Bionic is a little inconsistent, sometimes it beats Crafty, but in my KO-tournament it lost twice to Gromit within 35 moves. Keep up the good work.
Best wishes...
