do you have understanding problems ?

right. i was at playchess.com playing with my notebook.
and many people there have shredder8 (or other strong programs like
fritz8/7.04).

what is the thing you don't understand ??

you played 3/0. i do not play 3/0 because this time control makes IMO no sense.
i explained this to you. in the last 30 seconds the programs play to weak and
all the moves before have only trash value.

because i gave up the style days before because i have no king-attack slider.
for using aggressive you would need to change the king-safety values otherwise
the attacks result in counterproductive behaviour.

therefore i reduced this behaviour with defensive.

i gave up the idea of using aggressive. nevertheless the style was successful
enough on the server, only a few games against very strong hardware made me
change my mind. in those games, the king safety terms of hiarcs behaved wrong.


what do you expect me to do ?
to run to the computer for any new posting that is in CCC ?
I do my own stuff here. i have 7 computers here.
i feel no need to prove any posting just because it is there.
i do my tournaments. i do my fun things. and i try out things.

this is how it works. i am not a roboter that has the only job to generate
senseless blitz games evidence to refute people doing senseless blitz
tournaments all over in their life. i do not count your beans. thats your
"hobby".

i am interested in finding out things and trying to make things better.
i am not interested in wasting my computer resources by pressing a button and
going to sleep just to show or not show this or that.

and i am especially not there to jump when you say: jump. or jump until 'noon.


i will show you the games (playchess.com) when i have the time. in the moment i
have to do the christmas tournament. this takes time and care because each round
has many games, the programs get updated, new downloads , settings etc.
