Shredder UCI, despite what version, is normaly impossible to forfeit on time! If you think that playing Shredder versus Shredder makes sence repeat that under the delivered Classic GUI! I saw more than 10000 games played with different UCI Shredders and NEVER saw a forfeit on time from Shredder! I have to admit that because engine play in a GUI uses time, it makes sence to play at least a "+1 second" in whatever GUI (of course + 1/10 of a secoun would be enough but that is impossible). Bye Ingo PS: I do not think that it makes sence to play Shredder vs. Shredder. Even if the "older" version is performing better it is saying nothing about the real playing strength of each version!
