Hi Peter, I doubt that it's becoming weaker. In order to check for this, I occasionally do perform matches between the current and older versions. It seems, the playing level is still moderately increasing. Obviously, some of the other amateurs are progressing faster. So, Comet may probably look like loosing a bit of playing strength. BTW, don't focus too much on positions BS, BT or whatever. > >In testing, I still find that Comet B10, was the strongest. I remember we talked >about how you might have been adding to much randomness into Comet. Has this >been corrected, or is this still the basis of Comet? I guess, you are talking about the weights in the book ? I try to adjust the weights in a way that promising lines will be played more often. But I don't want to exclude rare and risky lines completely. I think playing strength (in terms of ELO) ist not the one and only criterion to look on chess progs ? Uli
