My setup is: Athlon 1GHz 768 MB PC133 SDRAM 192 MB hashtable, all 3/4/5-piece endgame tablebases Windows 2000 Pro Nothing major like SETI@home running in background, in case anyone suspects that. Also no MP3s playing. IE 5.5 and Outlook Express are the major ones running. Under Chess Tiger 14.0 engine options, 'Anti-human' is checked. I have both GUI and engine books on, but I'm not really sure what the difference is. Ever since the first loss, I've turned on booklearning, but I'm not really sure how it works or what the optimal settings are for that either. The human opponent was named vampir. He has no finger notes and his blitz rating is 1970. I've sent him a message asking if he has any FIDE, USCF or other federation ratings. From what I've observed, I believe human FICS ratings are very deflated, probably by more than 300 pts in some cases, compared to ICC or USCF. This might be due to the many computer accts robbing rating points from the humans. Reading over my original post, I should consider selling the made-for-TV movie rights. Sounds like something Lifetime might be interested in. Oh heck, let's shoot for the stars.... Universal Pictures presents Nicholas Cage in...
