Djinn just had one of those "interesting" encounters on ICC that occasionally happen. It lost to a 1600 player at a TC of "10 3". Always, interesting and maybe something more. The next game with the same player was a draw and the final game initially was going against Djinn but it eventually turned the tide in a 2-Rook vs. Queen, opposite side castling free-for-all and cashed in the full point. After this the 1600 player decided to move on to greener pastures. Now I'm not accusing anyone of anything (anyone can have a great day), but if it's something more (nefarious), well, what really bothers me about these "encounters" is that I never get to find out which version of Crafty, Yace, Shredder, Hiarcs, Fritz, Chess Tiger etc. etc. Djinn actually lost to, drew and then finally beat. ;-) How the heck is a poor engine author going to track their creation's progress?!! cheers, --tom
