Is it just me or does this sound like the most boring way possible to play chess? This seems analagous to those guys who use computers to cheat on the icc and claim there is skill involved because they are picking specific engines for certain opponents. I realize its not cheating in this case, but winning because "my programs outsearch the opponent in a lot of games" seems incredibly tiresome to me, even if the resulting chess is close to perfection. To each his own I suppose, but in my point of view computers have now offically destroyed the beauty of correspondence chess. -Kevin > >They know and almost all players in the final use computers. >I believe that only one of the players does not use computers. >using computers is allowed by the rules. > >There are players who prefer not to use computers but almost >all of them were eliminated in previous stages. > >The main reason that I win the competition is the fact that I >use more computer time per game then my opponents. > >I decided not to play in other tournaments when the opponents play >in other tournaments so they have more games to play in the same time. > >The result is that my programs outsearch the opponent >in a lot of games. > >Uri
