Go up one level in this thread


I think testing programs strength, a blitz time control can never be trusted, as
most programs play wildly from the opening, and there really is not a search
depth reached to find the "strongest" program, as any program can get lucky in
short time controls..

When playing longer games, a program strength and weaknesses come to surface,
and not to many program get lucky in those type games..

What is the decided time control between blitz and standard now anyway?

Is 15 15 a blitz time contol? Or is this a standard match only under ICS
settings?
