This does not make the results they get with it easier to believe, even more unbelievable. >Thorsten, unless you have anything *new* to contribute to this >discussion, I propose we all shut up about it (at least on the level of >"not believing" 500-1000 games). This is not Kindergarten. Right. What do they do in sweden ? They use a special not published autoplayer driver for a special not published program that comes with a special not defined opening book (who knows which book was used ?!) ? I remember times they throwed out the Schaetzle + Bsteh Turbokit BECAUSE IT WAS (as they called it ) not commercially available ! In fact it was always available . the only problem was that the swedish guys were unable to pay the money for these kits. Whatever - Fritz5 was released in september last year or so. In november there was the championship in Paris. The games and the result of Fritz5 were not very good. ChessBase had to come out with a special advertising gag to push the product. It took many months to generate enough autoplayer-games for them to have the right program to send to the ssdf-guys. But - they did it. Good job, good and clever done. And important for them. But - in the end it will turn into a total loss of credibility. Thats my opinoin of it. SSDF list and Fritz5 have done a very risky effort. I am not the only guy believing that there is something wrong. You can cruxify me, but you will not stop the ones coming after me...:-)) > >Moritz Would you please repeat your statements HOW impressive fritz5 wins against CSTal that I can use your statements against you ? I mean: i will show by data that you are wrong and that you somehow posted wrong results for whatever reasons or with whatever misusing or misoperating of programs and I would like to see it again, as I will call it a false statement in 2 months after I have significant data. This would be nice Moritz.
