-1 means, the engine will decide (at least thats true for shredder and fritz). 0
means no selectivity and 1 or more increasing selectivity.

For blitz game ist might be possible that reducing the selectivity might lead to

one has to try for yourself it depends on how fast your computer ís and much
more.
