From my own testing I can see a huge difference between the CB standard books (that came with Shredder 5.32 and Chess Tiger 14.0 for example) and the Fritz 7 book. The last one is by far better then the standard book, so you have a clear advantage here. Anyway, a program should be tested with its own book IMO, not with a 'random chosen' book. Otherwise Crafty, Goliath and all the others running under the CB GUI might as well take the Fritz7.ctg, can't they? Moreover, if there is apparently a choice, i'd like Chess Tiger 14.0 being tested in Sweden with the Fritz 7 book as well. Because I know it will perform much better using this book instead of the standard book. Dear friends from Sweden, can this be arranged? I want to stress the fact that I, of couse, do not blame you. But as far as I am concerned, this is a very strange decision by SSDF. Jeroen >Hi Jeroen, > >Simple answer. Thoralf has asked us what book the SSDF should use.
