Lets say all COMPS are over 2600 ... Whatever that might might mean! NoW! How do you calculate the strenght of individual COMPS?! If I tell you "Run an 11 rond tornament with all programs over 2400." you are going to reject my sugesion, because the results might not be correct! Fair enough! But why do you accept a 9 round tournament ,against humans, as a better measurement of COMPS strength?! (even if it is three of them) If you do ... then this is at best a hypocrisy ... ;-) What does it take to prove that one COMP is better than another COMP??! How do you do it?! Assuming human raitings have nothing to do with it! You have won all possible human tournaments! Now what?! Your logic must extend beyond the fact that COMPS can win against humans! Can your COMP win aganst another COMP?! This other COMP, however, might not have as many wins against humans as your COMP. .... Well ... what do you do then .... :-) Mind, you, I'm not challenging the fact that COMPS are very (VERY) strong ... just, what is the meaning of all of this for me?! A simple human?! For the most part, as a human, I can not gain anything from the fact that COMP are over 2600. Simple as that. It doesn't matter ... does the "neutrino" have mass? Who, the hell, cares! What other proof do you need! I can give you examples of the total stupidity of those 2600+ COMPS, even after 10+ hours of thinking. Do you think that 1+ billion nodes will change your mind?! ;=| You'll pick what is best to prove your point! However, the COMPS very often consider lines that are, at best, silly! best regards. hristo >> >>regards. >>hristo >> >> >>>All objective evidence is showing the best computer programs are above 2500+, >>>and strongly suggests them above 2600. >>> >>>More data coming...
