My list is a bullet / blitz list. I'm not searching for standard time controls. I agree with you that Genius might score better with longer time controls. The same happens to older-than-ninety-years-old-players if you give them the hole day to think about 1 move. Genius is _too_weak at bullet and blitz comparing with recent engines. Only 4 draws out of 50 games against Ruffian! Genius doesn't use Nalimov tablebases. Every other engine that uses tablebases are using Nalimov's (exception for Chessmaster). That's enough to say Genius needs update. Not only cosmetical update, I mean. Not only an update for comercial purposes. Customers of the 6.5 (Millenium package) version feel that's not the way to treat them. Look what Ed did to Century 3 customers, Rebel XP is free for download. Look at Lokasoft's services and you'll see what I mean. Lex Loep had updated a single file many times and published it at his site just because I was trying to run Deep Shredder under Chess Partner. That's what we Genius 6,5 customers want. I don't want a cosmetical update. A. Ponti
