Like i said, its made just for fun; my interests remain in the field of chess openings, and not in engines. But having been motivated recently by Bas Hamstra and sherifk i decided to join the tourn; ofcourse Volker checked that this simple program isnt a clone and i have sent him again a recent executable as well as the sourcecode; if i would use a clone (eg Goliath or so), i would say so. Vincent's accusation is simply discrediting my integrity and such an attack indeed seems to be personal and way out of line with any civilized norms concerning some sort of basic respect for other persons. As far as i'm concerned i think it would be fair to ban Vincent from CCC and ICC just to protect other people who like me can become a victim of his psychopathic attitude, best regards, jefk
