SS = Selective Search Unless told to do otherwise, the computer
considers every possible play and its implications to an infinite number of
plays before making its next move. This makes for slow and, therefore
relatively weak, play by the computer. The default here is 6, which means
that the computer selectively disregards unpromising lines for the first six
plies of the search. Beyond the selective search, it does a brute force
Search of all possible remaining moves.

Thanks.
