I'm not sure I'd be able to manually enter in the moves as you are doing. Having only one computer I do not have that luxury. I do like to play over these games and so thank you and all those you take the time to play and post them. About the game, it was a nice victory by CM5500 with it gradually building up its position and allowing Rebel little room to squirm out of its constricted position. One question I've always wanted to ask, and this I think could only apply to manual testing. If you noted, how often did the opponents in this game predict the moves made by each other. This would be interesting to know, as well as how long each move took to make. One move of Rebel's I could not produce was move 59. Bg4. On all antigm settings Rebel never once considers this move. I don't doubt for one minute that Rebel played this move as it could be the difference in our hash sizes (I use 60 MB while you had 100). Out of curiousity how does Rebel 10 eval this move (on my machine Bc6 was the preferred move)? Do you recall if Rebel was in a big hash hit when it made this move (ie: predicting successfully Cm5500's moves prior to its own move 59)? If you can please post the other game scores.
