>It proves nothing. Then why are people asking for such positions as in: 'I will believe DB was better when I see a move it found others dont' (at least Amir and Bucham have said this) >If singular extension can help then Ferret or another program with singular >extensions could also see winning a piece after a lot of time. Yes. That's why I mentioned Bruce ;) A lot of time could mean several weeks though. >I bet that Crafty with singular extension and it is not important how you >implement singular extensions cannot see winning a piece in that position even >after 24 hours. I dont understand what you mean with this. If the implementation of SE is crap it'll never find anything. I _know_ that the current implementation in crafty is quite sub-par as I'm the one who wrote and tested it. From what I gather, not having SE means that you have 20 extra ply to crunch through. I don't see a way to solve this without DB/DT unless you want to wait for weeks or months. I can't miss my computer for that long. >If I am right than it means that there must be a bug in Deep thought. Could be. Or it could just have been right and better than the current comps. I understand the latter explanation is unacceptable to some people here. -- GCP
