If M means MOVE this could explain why the main lines have a pattern on the base of 2 . This would correlate better ! If you believe M means ply, than it is not obvious to me why the machine has pretty good main-lines, deep, after 1 second computing time and M=sero ! >What do you call the "log file"? Call it SENDINFO or what crafty is writing in his log-files. It prints out the main-lines, search-depth and evaluations in an ascii-file. The first dedicated machine doing this was Saitek Leonardo. Later some Novag machines made it possible. This was a big and important thing for me because I don't always have to starr on the LCD ! >I agree about the fact that there are "secrets".
