This is an interesting topic and I did a small amout of testing of the triple brain when I got my first Shredder. Nothing spectacular came of it but the problem was that I didn't have any good engines as a second engine to Shredder. If the two engines are running at say half speed then they only lose about 50-60 Elo points I guess. Seems to me that if one can prevent the other from making a big mistake then it might be helpful. How much I don't know but some testing needs to be done in this area. Like maybe one engine with null move and one without? The availability of Ruffian and a few other nice programs might make some new test worthwhile. Jim
