Uh, Johan already wasn't very happy, and I guess your post won't be very motivating either :( I talked with him about this during the game. It seems that he does try a lot of new things, but usually ends up throwing them out again because they prove to be worse than what he does now. I guess it may be very hard to keep the King's nice style and make it stronger. But he is working and the engine does improve. Would you prefer a stronger engine (it's not like it's a pansy, it was leading after the first week!), or one that actually plays *interesting* games? -- GCP
