That would indeed be an optimal solution, since Fritz is playing all its matches at home turf, which could be an advantage. But I haven't heard that it's possible to do so. Furthermore, I agree with your observations regarding the general reservations you can heed about this test. >ps, BEWARE my english is approved by chessfun and mogen larsen. so dont complain LOL. With the kind of improvement you're showing this far, I'll have to practice to keep up. (mumbling: where did I put that dictionary?) Best wishes... Mogen(s) Larsen
