tuning styles is not easy joachim.

and it works not with ANY program.

IMO it works less good with search based programs.

whenever you bring new evaluation into a program you need to tune it in relation
to the other evaluations.

and tuning style needs lots of time because you have to proof the idea in
games versus all kind of opponent on all kind of hardware/levels.

this takes.

but it works.

I have found that there are programs i can do it, and programs i can't do it.
maybe because i cannot FEEL for these programs.
