One question, though. If it were clearly an ICC bug, why can't >I cause the same situation when using a native engine?

It seems very odd to me that the native engine(s) aren't experiencing >the same issue (however, I've only tested LCHESS.) In the traces I have seen it is clearly a ICC bug. I don't know why it does not happen with LCHESS. This could be because LCHESS book handling is a bit slower, probably there is just a very small time window of maybe 10-20 millisecond in which this problems shows up. In fact here in the lab I have never been able to duplicate the problem. > >For the time being, selecting "None" instead of Timestamp seems to be a quick >fix for the problem. > The problem seems related to the timestamp program. I will soon release a ChessPartner update which has a option to introduce a small delay before sending move to ICC. This is of course a workaround. Lex >Regards, > >-elc.
