Go up one level in this thread


Chaps,

From my innocent 'what happened in the PDA tournament' there seems to have been
a few 'flame' type responses in the thread.  Let's cool down a little!!  I think
everyone who posted is interested in PDA chess but from different angles.  For
myself, and I suspect Ian, we're just fans of the platform.  My frustration, and
maybe Ian's, comes from not being able to play the programs against each other
(I don't have two PocketPCs or two Palms) so I don't really know the real
strength differences.  So a tournament like this is of real interest.  From
Christophe point of view he's created a great program but I guess he's sensitive
to being accused of being too commercial - well I don't blame him - it's his
livelihood - I'd be as commercial as hell if I were him.  Then there is Thorston
who organised the tournament - we do appreciate this Thorston.  It's not his
fault that Genius didn't want to play - that was not public knowledge at the
time - a big thanks to him!!

So hopefully no hard feeling all round - and long live PDA chess!

Regards,

Steve

PS Christophe - will be see PocketPC Tiger by Chrtistmas - can't wait?
