Hi all-
i've created a dedicated web site for Alderon: http://www.alderonchess.com/

i'm ceasing the development of cyclops (due to lack of interest), so I concentrate on Alderon (and cyclone).
www.cyclopschess.com will be taken off-line later today.

I could never get Cyclops to work under any of the GUIs I use, otherwise I'd have tested it extensively for you, especially if it was stronger than Cyclone as you claimed.

Cyclops run well with me (chessGUI and Arena), except it could not use the gui book. Testing without book, it was about the same strength as Cyclone against other opponents, but did better on Cyclops vs Cyclone matches.

Ok - that was the problem. I don't use own books.

Thanks, Graham.
