It is not a troll.

Do you consider Diep stronger than Deep Blue? I am simply remarking at Vincent's
own comments. See here:

Information about diep(C) (Last disconnected Sun Oct 13 2002 17:48):

 1: Chess program DIEP <shakes> your hand!
 2: Hardware: Dual 1.4 Ghz K7, 512 megs RAM, OS: Linux 2.4.19 (Gentoo Distro),
Downloading EGTBS right now...
 3: Diep is an independent program written by Vincent Diepeveen.  It is not
crafty, and it is not fritz.  Don't confuse it with Deep Blue, it's better; and
more important, it plays games here and now.  Diep has a lot of chess knowledge
inside.  I test diep under this account to see if I need to bugfix it
 4: Any humans within 600 pts can play diep rated, ANYONE can play diep unrated.
 5: Computers are allowed to play diep in 30 30 or 60 10 standard.
 6: diep(C) kibitzes: pv=00:00 32401 (264) 9 MATE42 Bc3xb2 Kg7-f8 Be8-h5 Kf8-g7
 7: If you have any questions, first "fi Diepeveen", then send him a message

 Name   : Vincent Diepeveen

How am I trolling when it is coming from the horses mouth... or should I say
ass.

Diep has finished high in a tournament _once_. And suddenly everyone jumps on
Diep's bandwagon.

Vincent said that if Johan was using the _default_ chessmaster is would _not_
have won vs Diep. To me that would mean the Vincent believes that Chessmaster
9000 would _never_ be able to beat Diep using the default settings.

I would bet that if you ran a match long enough GNU Chess would beat Diep in
atleast one game. It is not _impossible_ as Vincent would like to believe.
