My MATE is -MAXNUM+100 so in the above, it is like value == -MAXNUM+ply+2.
My recaptures is nearly any two captures in a row but I don't want to solve
141 with that. I'd like to have mate threat working. Not sure about what is
meant by adjusting mate scores for the hash table. What's to adjust?
I find a mate, a modify it by +ply, then I store that position with that
score in the hash table. Don't I want to do that?!?
