Shredder is not a Blitzer! (although it plays Blitz very well and could win against most humans in Blitz). I've tested Shredder 3, 4 and 5 and Deep Shredder under Winboard, UCI and Fritz GUI, and when playing Lightning or Blitz tournaments it did _never_ ended first, most of the tournaments using these time-controls are won by Fritz, Hiarcs or Crafty. I've tried the ERT (Lokasoft's Engine Research Tool) but Shredder seems to crash very often, don't know why... I like the way Shredder uses the Nalimov tablebases, it seems to use them better than Tiger... Just MHO on this topic. A. Ponti
