I did read in crafty's source code that minmax is used to determine if a piece is attacked or not. My question actualy is if you block this option on a to early point, you handicap the program and is it for this reason why 0-0-0 is not played by programs in the game Nimzowitsch- Alapin Also if you play quick games or tournament games the threath of capture should lay on an other valeu. Also with new faster hardware this kind of search is to my point of vieuw more a handicap then a solution Ofcourse I am not a programmer yet but this where questions wich came up when I did read about this min-max search. I am verry intrested i your answers. Marc van Hal
