If you don't have anything constructive to add why don't you just ignore us. One of the claims by CSTal-2 proponents is that it plays better vs humans than computer "Bean Counters". The game I posted is just the other side of the coin. In fact most all computers on ICC can claim to play better vs humans. It's a well known fact if you avoid the strong computers and only allow humans to play your computer account you will have a higher rating. This is true of CSTal-2 also of course. But CSTal-2 style often leaves it very vulnerable. Often after a sac for the attack it fails and then it is subject to lose. It's style is interesting. If Chris or Thorsten wants to call this a "Gem" of a chess program that's fine also. It does however have it's idiosyncrasies. Jim Walker
