Now I think that Stuart had no intention to be rude, and that actually the

So I would like to stop this and just answer the questions that have been asked.

I'm still working. I believe I am far from what I can achieve and I see a lot of
room for improvement in Chess Tiger.
For me it's still a work in progress.

You are right, there has been NO clear number one for many months.

The most likely hypothesis in that Shredder is the number one, but it is not
very clear. In particular if you look at Chessfun's list.

Because I can't punish myself for not getting a six every time I roll a dice.

I have no idea, I do not have the latest versions of Fritz (or Shredder BTW) and
I have no interest in trying to exploit their weaknesses.
My only interest is in trying to fix Chess Tiger weaknesses (which are many).
>And, what about Tiger for ARM Palm processors?
That's something I'm working on, too.
Stuart I initially did not want to answer your questions not because I felt they
were rude, but because I did not feel I had anything really interesting to
answer.
If you find something interesting in my above answers, tell me. I have read them
again and still think they are extremely uninteresting. But I swear I did my
best. Sorry.
