No, it means that the architecture of Falcon using all the extensions sucks :) Sometimes at the 4th iteration it searches as deep as 40+ plies in some lines, which gives it a huge tactical strength in lower time controls. But the tactical advantage disappears in longer time controls, and what remains is a bad positional play with no decisive tactical strength. Although this results in a very good blitz performance on my slow hardware, I believe in faster hardware the tactical advantage will be insignificant even in blitz time controls. >Looks like it plays strong on longer time controls and looses on blitz. > >Uli > >>...
