Hello Michel,

I must admit, I was a bit skeptical about this post when I first read it, but
can you blame me?  :)

I did go over the game rather briefly, and I can say this with certainty:

1.  Vortex parted with its Queen on move 4, very unusual. The trade was Queen +
Pawn vs. Archbishop and Knight, something I have code in place to prevent (so I
thought). I will have to look at this more carefully now.

2. White definitely is winning after 42. Rd5 and the killer 43. Bb6! Very nicely
done!

3. The scores reported by Vortex after this indicate the King Safety module is
hosed!!

I concur TSCP Gothic did win this game in a very fitting and deserved fashion. I
hope to see you this August for the $10,000 event :)
