I know that it is the case with chessmaster6000 and based on analysis of Jhon marlino I got the impression that default is 6 plies also for chessmaster8000. I do not understand the reason for choosing default=6 plies because I find that chessmaster is usually faster in solving test position with selective search=10 plies(it is for chessmaster6000 and I have not chessmaster8000). I know that a program may be a better solver and not a better player but I saw no clear evidence that chessmaster(ss=6) is a better player. Uri
