Subject: CSTal help........Easter Tourney Game 1

Author: Chessfun

Date: 04:23:27 03/08/00


Hi,
  In game 1 of my Easter tourney
CStal runs itself out of time.

It counts down from 60 secs and
just ignores the countdown and moves
20 secs after it. This was after 59 moves,
I played the game out but am puzzled.

CM6K took 32 minutes for the game.

What should the hash settings be on CSTal auto?

An amazing game Tal sees itself up by as much as 7
at times 6 or 5 for long periods, while chessmaster
hardly ever sees itself as down by more than 1.

Here is the game:
2 equal Cel 433's 60 min/side

[Event "Easter Tourney"]
[Site "Scarb"]
[Date "2000.03.08"]
[Round "1"]
[White "CSTal 2.03"]
[Black "Chessmaster"]
[Result "1/2-1/2"]
