ICC vs. Komodo online voting match!

The match was a success! Hundreds of ICCers joined forces to try and defeat the Komodo chess engine.  Unfortunately, Komodo proved too strong for the combined forces of the ICC community and the engine prevailed!    It was great fun nonetheless and GM Alex Yermolinsky joined us and commentated on the game, for the pleasure of our members.
