Power-book is on cd. so learning takes normally no effect.

Thanks that you don't try any frontier games here. I think my "witness-preparation" guarantees at least that i am not cheating by playing 10 games and "forget" 7 wins and only take the one loss. Because my witness sees which game was played. There is still room for manipulation (if somebody wants to cheat, he will find a way...) but i think i have done anything from my side to guaranty that anything is ok. I am not in charge for the games fritz played, although some people want to suggest here... :-))
