I expected more from Tenax 0.9.5 . May be next versions would have more success.

The new version of the Peripheral 1.1.3 engine performs poorly in the first test. For now, it's an amateur engine,

Cheng 4.46 wins Qualifying for top-64 CEDR, Swiss1 edition 02/2024 (10-15.03.2024)

Promotion to the 4 League: Cheng 4.46, Leorik 3.0, Midnight 9.
End of testing: errors, low level, freezes, etc.: Kelp 0.12.0, Austerlitz 1.4.7, BabChess 1.0.0, Catto 0.5.1.
The Cheng 4.46 engine, first in the table, achieved a very good result. He has not suffered a single defeat.
Leorik 3.0 had the same number of points, but in the second round he lost the game to the Midnight 9 engine (which took third place).
In the Swiss tournament, there were many new engines that crashed the Aquarium program or crashed themselves. We will not check the causes, there is no time for that, we will simply not test these engines anymore.
