Now this is a great game from Gothmog (suicidal) and it went on to win, but it
seems to completely fail to see the straight out winning move 32...Bb5!!
Easy for humans to see and should be for programs as well i guess?

[D]8/1p6/p1bk2p1/R3pp2/1P1p1p1P/P4P2/6P1/4K3 b - - 0 32

Nice opening BTW, would make for a good anti computer line against white.
Gothmog used the suicidal setting and Pro Deo was set to use the Michael Tal
personality, which produces some _very_ interesting games. When the style of
Gothmog is set to active it will find Bb5 in 3 min, but not with a convincing
score and not with the winning line (Bb5 a4 b6!! axb5 bxa5 bxa6 Kc7!!) it will
change it's mind after about 8 min to Bd5. Try Shredder 8 on this position and
you should see a score around +5 (atleast) for black.

For some reason the books take some time to respond in UCI mode, don't know why
though, around 4-5 sec per move in the opening.
