When have I _ever_ "discouraged others from joining events such as the WCCC"??? Once more, as I have often asked in the past, please provide an exact quote or citation for where I have done so.

But I guess everyone has his own right to make things up, even idiots... > >>>>On June 29, 2004 at 07:28:11, Peter Berger wrote: >>>> >>>>>Was there any reason to believe that Crafty would have a big hardware advantage? >>>>> >>>>>It doesn't surprise me that ChessBase has similar abilities to organize fast >>>>>hardware as Bob Hyatt. >>>>> >>>>>The only ones who will truely suffer are the ones who have to use the default >>>>>hardware, playing against opponents with 10 times faster systems ... >>>>> >>>>>Peter >>>> >>>> >>>>With more time we would have had an advantage. 8-way was doable but not on a >>>>30-day notice. 16-way and beyond was also doable given enough time... >>>> >>>>But the good news is that we have a little advantage anyway, since we will >>>>really be running a 64 bit program and the processors are a tad faster to boot. >>>>IE at least we don't enter with a disadvantage of any kind. :) >>>> >>>>Also we know that my parallel search works well on this box.
