There are two remaining games in KKUP2. Now is when the real excitement begins! Since it is now nearly November, we have to ask ourselves, "Will these games finish before the end of the year and the start of KKUP 3?!" A while back, I saw a tiny bit of motion. But once again, they are starting to rust. The drama mounts, "Will the rusty gears allow the programs to squeak forward past the finish line in time?" With the Fritz/CM5500 game now on move 48, we could possibly have some kind of a record. So far, 268 days since the start on February 1st. 95 ply so far gives .35 ply per day, or one full move every 5.6 days. Is there a record for this sort of thing? Snail chess?! Does any correspondence chess expert know how long the longest correspondence game is? Also, out of curiosity, how long did KKUP 1 take to finish?
