Hi,

Ok, ok, i thought that a clone was an engine that is created from another's
source code. Tell me if im right or wrong. If what I say about what is a clone
is true, comet is a MUCH IMPROVED ENGINE THAT CAME OUT FROM GNU CHESS, the eval,
s.s, and other important things were changed on the GNU Chess source code and
thats where Comet born, Im I wrong? About Ruffian, the development started on
1998!! so the engine MUST be a clone, as I explained on my list, the real origin
of Ruffian is unknown, but some say it is a fritz, or crafty, or hiarcs, but
that is not prooven completely. About MSCP, I tested like 500 games between them
and almost all were draw, so I think that MSCP is a TSCP Clone. I cant put
EXChess-TSCP a clone because I havent tested them yet, so I cant say anything
about them. Also, i forgot to put this clone: DelphiMax- MiniMax clone, Matin
Bauer say that to me and it appears on its homepage so you CANT disscuss about
that one.
