Movei is playing in enough tournaments. I do not see the big advantage from playing in another tournament. It is better if I work about what I need to do. There are a lot of free engines that movei can play against them. I do not understand why the ICC tournament can help me more than games that I get from other sources when the number of the games that I get from other sources is clearly bigger. Games did not help me to find that movei use numextensions[-1] in the first iteration checkingbounds helped me to detect it. For some reason when I use test postions I find that the number of nodes is the same even after correcting the error. There was also another error(not deterministic error) before the error of numextensions[-1] but for some reason I cannot reproduce it now. I believe that discussions here can help me more than games to get rid of these errors. The main problem of movei except it is not bugs but lack of knowledge. I looked in a lot of previous games of movei and I do not believe that new tournaments are going to help me. Uri
