What is the largest # of moves in a single game between two chess engines that
people have witnessed. It would be interesting to hear of some long games and
maybe a PGN of them.
Seems like the quicker the time frame the more moves will be made. I'am
guessing because of mistakes made. I just finished watching this long game which
was because of a lot of inaccurate play I'am sure. I was glad it blitz and not
40/2!
