If you would know tiger well you know that no matter what time you give it, if it decides for a move it will keep playing that move. I beated it by 'accident' kind of 2 times because i prevented it from castling. by doing that i lost a pawn, but then it didn't do anything to escape from that castling prevention (i'm sure shredder would have done it and some other programs too). so it lost. I do not understand why you can't make the induction step that if it can be beaten at 15 15 (which i use to practice, not to beat compu's), then why wouldn't it be possible at 40 in 2? somehow you're the only computer guy who can't make that induction step. Human obviously is better when time gets better for him. Try to get a 1800 rated i'd say, perhaps they play without rewards. >On November 08, 2001 at 08:41:16, Mogens Larsen wrote: > >>On November 08, 2001 at 08:33:09, Jonas Cohonas wrote: >> >>>I said the requirements of the challenge was objective, not that the definition >>>of anti comp play was clearly defined objectively!! >> >>If you by requirements mean conditions, then you clearly listed "no anti-comp" >>play as a condition.
