Subject: New Rebel-Century4 style Machëide and its games from Knaak position

Author: Thorsten Czub

Date: 06:59:28 02/18/02


Using commercially rebel-century4, and a style that came to my mind when reading
Dr.Emanuel Lasker, worldchess-champion, mathematician and philosoph in
"Philosophy of the unattainable", Leipzig 1919.

The position was initiated by thomas lagershausen in a german chess forum.
White, knaak, sacced a piece, and the question was, if the white position is
to win.

As you can see the normal century4 is still too much "old paradigm", but the new
style macheide.eng comes close to new paradigm™.

In his book Lasker decribes how the Machëide, his godlike theoretical creature,
would live, discuss, play chess and solve all kind of problems.

The computers began to compute after move 14.e6.


Have fun:

"The Land of Plenty

Don't really have the courage
to stand where i must stand.
Don't really have the temperament
to lend a helping hand.

Don't really know who sent me,
to raise my voice and say:

May the lights in The Land of Plenty
shine on the truth some day.

I don't know why i come here,
knowing as i do,
what you really think of me,
what i really think of you.

For the millions in the prison,
that wealth has set apart -
for the christ who has not risen,
from the caverns of the heart -

For the innermost decision,
that we cannot but obey -
for what's left of our religion,
i lift my voice and pray:

May the lights in The Land of Plenty
shine on the truth some day.

I know i said i'd meet you,
I'd meet you at the store,
but i can't buy it, baby,
i can't buy it anymore.

And i don't really know
who sent me,
to raise my voice and say:

May the lights in The Land of Plenty
shine on the truth some day.

For the innermost decision,
that we cannot but obey
for what's left of our religion
i lift my voice and pray:

May the lights in The Land of Plenty
shine on the truth some day."

Leonard Cohen
