Self-play ?

You have keyboard short-cuts, I presume ?

Don't know. Also past caring about it. Does it make any difference to
the grand scheme of things ? I doubt it.

We will see what we want.

Generally pissed off. Very pissed off with the computer chess community.
Think that this board was a mistake. It should either have been a
private club, or else not have had the ability to ban RT. Its too
clique-y. It has a mob that turns on anybody, the KK thing is a case in
point. My fault, I played a large part in setting it up, and I failed to
see that the original intention to dispose of RT, to form  a non-RT
club, was going also to result in an 'in-gang' with an inevitable
culture of in-ness/clique-ness and an ensuing inevitable
anihilation/expulsion/exclusion of its self-defined outsiders.

First they came for Tueschen, and I didn't protest etc. etc. etc.
You know the poem, we've had cause to quote it before, no ?

Possibly the greatest potential problem (never considered) will be the
sponsors power, already used, no ?

Pfah. I'm not keeping you in with your daily fix of updates.

Mood ?

Yeah, lets be in good mood and play with our programs :(
I think not in my case.
