As I wrote earlier, the effort is limited to only a few hours a week, se it's not that much work. Also, I expect to be spending a lot of time looking at the narration output, so it's a whortwhile investment. And I'm quite sure that the general idea is going to work. >Keep the fight!

See the above that appears immediately prior to the result position diagram. The expectation is a regular score, a score range, or a special score (e.g., MateIn5). The node frequency is the node count divided by the processor usage. I expect the figure to decrease by a factor of ten or so as the project progresses.
