No - i have no good results. My friends have no good results. We all have no autoplayer, but we have bought fritz and bravely upgraded it. We have 200 Mhz machines and when we play manually, fritz gets only 2nd class results. Draws, losses. also wins. But not these good results enrique, moritz and the ssdf-guys get. I see no reason to admit that fritz is the strongest program, after all the bad results and games I have seen, just because a bunch of people seeing as deep friends of chessBase (otherwise they would not have got the autoplayer) get beautiful results with it. If the customer at home is unable to reproduce the results, they are worth nothing. All other programs support auto232, because they have nothing to hide and they allow the customer to reproduce the results. I will admit that fritz is the strongest program, when I have these results. As long as my friends and I don't have these superior results, i will say the it is good. it may score top results, but the games are horrible. And in no way it gets results BETTER than other programs. Maybe the autoplayer can produce the results. But not my fritz here. Here fritz plays exactly like in paris. Stupid. drawish and not succesful. >Or do you admit that your logic does not >include Fritz 5 when the facts turn against your personal feelings, and instead >turn in favor of Chess Base and Fritz 5. Again you made the claim. This is your >own logic. Will you now back away from it? If you do does not this show that you >have just been running a smear campaign because of your own personal feeling >about chess base. Will you not respond? When I get good , best results by fritz, I have no problems saying that i have good results. I would still not like the style, but have no problems to claim that it is the strongest program. I have also no problems to call nimzo98 very strong. Or Junior. I have no problems with them because they play better chess as Fritz. If you think this is a campaign, I can only say: this is always said. But who pays this day ?! Saitek ? Hegener+Glaser because I liked MM5 ? Marty, because I wrote a nice article about Mchess ? Don ? Because i liked Rex-chess ? Novag, because I liked Super-Forte-C ? Ed ? Because I liked Rebel8 ? Maybe Bob, because crafty leads my tournament ?! Of course they all pay me :-)) I am a rich man.
