Several people asked: Question: What does "12(6)" mean in Deep Blue's logs? Dr Hsu said, "12(6) means 12 plies of brute force (not counting the search extensions & quiescence). 6 means the maximum hardware search depth allowed. this means that the PV could be up to 6 plies deeper before quiescence." Unfortunately questions were being fed through a third-party, so it wasn't possible to get a follow-up. Andrew
