I don't agree here. It is fun. Maybe not extremely accurate, but it says *something* about the efficiency of their search, which I believe is horrible. I think using SE and not nullmove is *inefficient* as compared to nullmove. We don't need 100.0000% accurate data when it's obviously an order of magnitude more inefficient. By the way at FICS a modified Crafty is running, using SE. It has a rating of 2100. Best regards, Bas.
