Winboard Forum

Hello !

As it was a really cold and rainy day aroung Geneva, not only did I try to make rules for my Dinosaur league, but I also spent some hours on the internet, especially with the still working search engine of the old winboard forum. As a result I have been able to make a rough list of the strongest engines of the years 1998 and 1999.

I am yet missing a few of them !

For 1999 :
Bringer 1.5
ZChess 1.2
KngihtX 1.50

For 1998 :
The Crazy Bishop 0042
ZChess 1.0
InmiChess 2.10
Cilian 4.09b

So if you still have them somewhere after all these years or know where I could find them, I would be very grateful.

I am afraid that each passing day may see a little disaster (hard disk crash or else) and increase the difficulty of finding them.

Please feel free to ask yourself for old engines if you wish to have them : I have now plenty of them. Of course I am only talking about engines that are (or were) freely avalaible !

Best regards.

Note to the moderators : I am aware I already posted a thread about this a few monthes ago, I of course do not intend to spam. If I am too insistant on the subject, please tell me !
