That is the kind of comments they make all the time. >It is the kind of comment I would _never_ consider making. Sorry, I can't resist this. But I think if DB would have used nullmove, hash and no singular extensions, it would been much much stronger. Suppose Crafty searched not 15 ply, but 25 ply. All the time. Don't you think that would blow DB right out of the sky? I think so. Yet, DB being 1000x faster than current hardware, they could have reached that depts. To follow this thread a bit, they would have seen the draw :-) Best regards, Bas.
