Notable New highs were scored by TDChess (2711) and PostModernist (2603). Top spot goes to TDChess, which currently sits at 2679 (as of this morning), and may very well be our first graduate. Excellent job, Jon! Most active was Hossa, with 287 blitz games played. I notice that several members (active and inactive) will be competing at Paderborn. They are LambChop, Stobor, XXXX-2, and Gromit. One would hope that McKenzie will bring something faster than a P133. :) Good luck to all! u2600 Position of the Week This comes from a standard game played on ICC this week between TDChess and crafty450. TDChess found a good move, which I don't believe would have been found at blitz time controls. A good human player might be tempted to play it right off the bat, but a program needs proof. See how long it takes yours to find the winning move. Also, see if you can guess the move before your program finds it. 2r4k/3q1pp1/1rn4p/p1R5/P2p1B2/5QP1/P4P1P/2R3K1 w - -
