But this is very nice for chess-base and their "autoplayer"-system.
because it makes the opponents unable to learn, and fritz/junior learns.

result: 70% ! :-))))

this is of course not cheating. it is "beeing clever and smart".

right.

:-))))))))

maybe we do only know 1% of the tricks.
i have heard there are other tricks too.
but nobody has the courage to speak about in public, because nobody wants to get
problems with chessBase.

therefore nobody says in public THAT they cheat.

i am not afraid.

that would explain why fritz got the most point FROM "BEATING" REBEL !
but is this really about strength ?
Isn't this about cheating and manipulation ?
Is this about chess ?
no - it is about how to cheat in autoplayer-sessions.
No wonder that i was unable to reproduce their results. You cannot
reproduce these results if you don't behave THIS CLEVER...

"bug" --- you say it christophe..................

>>I think it is time for a patch which correct this mistake.

:-)))))))) Mistake ?!? :-))))))))


>"Mistake" !?...

:-))

I wonder why nobody of the chess-base mafia told us about this "little, tiny
bug/mistake/problem". i am sure it was not important to tell us :-)))))

but : in the end - any betrayal comes out.
