Then I should do that: force myself to at least a real one ply search. no need for that; like you once said, no need to be a good chess player in order to make a swell program; probably even a lousy Otb chess player like myself could beat you in standard (rating Kec, about 1500+ on Icc (*) ) > >BTW: did you use a real QSearch or a simple SEE? :-) good question; a program as MSCP, on which my controversial engine (remember the CCT4 discussions?) 'Djenghis' was based, claims to look only 4 ply deep, but the quiscence is some sort of a/b See function (still working on that for Dj..). PS (*) but playing a lot with Djenghis in gambit style probably will improve my chess i guess; but then, like i said, it won't improve my programming skills :) (no wonder Diep, even after a lot of help from the Dutch computer chess goeroe Jan Lowman still (despite all VD's claims about the built in chess knowledge only seems to perform well in bullet (probably because of its relatively fast hardware, i guess, but even then, one would presume it would also perform better in blitz/standard; probably VD overlooks something, being such a genius programmer..)
