Subject: Rebel Century users: can anyone reproduce this error (logfiles included)

Author: Rafael Vasquez

Date: 12:40:58 12/16/99


I'm seriously thinking that AMD K6-3 450mhz is producing some strange errors
with REBEL CENTURY.Want to confirm it by reproducing it in a Pentium machine.
I put Rebel Century in player-player mode and went thru the position shown in
the logfile. Then I turned the books off and set autoplay. The time control was
40 in 2:30. Suddently RC declared chekmate? by two different moves Be3+ and
Bd3+(move 10)

I cannot believe this and put the position in analisys mode. This time it will
not declare mate and I decided to move forward according to the PV. Now it will
show a -4128768 eval! for position in black's 10th move.
