I suspect the reason is that I have a full time job and only one computer for testing. But you are right that it will always lose some points because I am not interested in cooking anti-EngineX book lines. It doesn't seem like real rating to me, yes you will score extra points in a tournament here or there, but are you going to be a co-player like that to the engine always whereever it goes whereever it plays? Of course not, you might eventually want to sell it, you want it to do well on the SSDF or whatever. The program must stand on it's own two feet, no holding hands with a book-specialist all the time. Everything must be automated, learning, book generation, everything or it won't be "real" (IMHO). >It is sillier to reply a topic without being interested. What are your >intentions there?
