Do you think that it cannopt get above 2200 for that reason? If your answer is negative then I do not understand why you assume that another programmer cannot do what you can do. > >I hope you realize Crafty also uses fritz8.ctg at SSDF. No It is using another book of chessbase and not fritz8.ctg It is also not Bob's choice and Ruffian does not use a book of chessbase in the ssdf and it is clearly above 2200. > >Without chessbase book and chessbase learning i'm not so sure whether crafty >would get much above 2200 there. I am sure that even movei can get above 2200 in the ssdf without chessbase learning and movei is weaker than Crafty. Uri
