I have no idea what you are talking about. The DTS test and my dissertation tests were wildly different. One had 24 unrelated positions, searched to fixed depth, on very slow hardware. One had 24 consecutive positions from the same game, searched to variable depth, on very fast hardware... And I didn't "fraud" any numbers whatsover. That is your word. But you are the fraud expert of course... being the biggest fraud here by orders of magnitude. > >I personally see a substantial difference between 11.1 in a frauded article and >8.81 in a thesis. So do I. Different test. Run a different way. With pre-loaded hash tables carried across moves. Etc... BTW the difference is 20%. Of course that is "substantial" in your small world. Even knowing the two tests were not intended to be compatible. My dissertation did the same test everyone previous to that had done, the BK positions. The DTS article tried to answer a _different_ question, but apparently that subtle difference is lost to your "great" intellect... > >If everything crashed at your harddisk , how can you still post here at ICC >results from matches crafty - cray blitz? Do you remember anything I have written about this? About the fact that old CB executables exist in old Cray users group libraries? There used to be plenty of executables to be found. There may still be executables around if you look hard enough. But no source. > >"cray blitz annihilated crafty". > >I remember that posting. So do I although again you blew the wording... What you claim I wrote I _never_ wrote. But that is nothing new is it??? But as far as that match goes, it was interesting. It was made possible by a friend (who shall remain nameless) calling and saying "we are shutting our C90 down today. But it won't be moved until the weekend. Want to try a demo or something as I have an old copy of CB running on it that I use to test against my program..." So I ran for a while, until it became obvious that it was not going to be very interesting. I'd bet the quad opteron would have come out ahead. But not the quad xeon I had when I played the match... But what does this have to do with anything???
