It's rather obvious from the event that Gandalf doesn't get a lot of time to consider a move on comparatively slow hardware. My guess is that "the Web" uses chess software on faster machines making it an easy win, but it's mostly for fun. >If people want to reproduce my score then it is possible that they need to >download the game because I gave Hiarcs the information about all the moves >before 31.h3 and only then I downloaded gandalf4.32f(my experience say that >giving gandalf position under hiarcs and playing moves in analysis mode can lead >to different results that may be wrong so I do not use this method) If you use Gandalf for analysis under Chessbase then it's best to remove xfritz from the Gandalf_432f.init commandline. And clear the bookpath as well. Mogens.
