Subject: Junior5 learning disability

Author: Steven Juchnowski

I have played Junior5 against other programs using
separate PC's.

Since the moves are entered manually, there have
been occasions where Junior's opponent has lost
on time according to Junior's clocks. Some of these
games have in fact ended in victory for the opponent.

What I have noticed is that Junior's learning is based
on the lost in time result rather than the final result.

This has led to Junior replaying a previously lost game.

Fritz5 does not appear to have this problem as Fritz will
always prompt you for the scoreline upon exiting the game,
irrespective if the game was lost on time or not.

I have tried to resave Juniors games with the amended
result but this does not seem to have altered Junior's
learning function.

How does one reeducate Junior?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards Steven
