Subject: Pro Deo FAQ

Author: Ed Schröder

Just updated my pages with a FAQ, I list the most important issues.

Under ChessBase and perhaps other Interfaces such as Arena, ChessMaster,
Winboard a time-control problem may or may not occur. Using the tournament time
control make sure that time-control-1 is equal to time-control-2 and that you
zero time-control-3. So: 40/2hr+40/2hr or 40/20+40/20. Doing otherwise it may
happen PRO DEO will start moving instantly after move 41 for the rest of the
game.

....

It's safe to add the following parameter to your REBEL.ENG personality file as
found in the sub-folder PERSONAL.

    [Pruning = MISC_78]

The parameter adds considerable strength to PRO DEO on longer time controls,
approximately 5-10 elo. You can download the new setting HERE. Unzip REBEL.ENG
into your PRODEO/PERSONAL folder, it will automatically overwrite the old one.
