Now I show you how such a setting COULD lead to possible cheating. I have a second comp and a good GM. Then GM says "hey guys, I know for sure that in this position such and such could be played and then we have somewhat of the following position; now give it into the machine, I want to see what Junior will do in that position". Well, that being done and suddenly all can see that this is leading into hell. So - if that existed at all what I don't know - if I had a possibility to interfere JUST via the time mode [I remember a story from London where that happened in a game between Rebel and Shredder] so that I could influence Junior to play such and such. Of course I can only give the rough design of such a doing but perhaps the experts could comment with details. I think atleast I found a possibility where a second machine and its answers "from the future" so to speak, I repeat, where a second machine could tell how the playing machine would decide later on, then that is a possibility in combination with a GM to change the direction of play - if there is the tiniest possibility to influence e.g. the "clock". The details of that plot surely must be prepared in advance. Question is if there is such a slight possibility to change into a different time mode. Rolf Tueschen
