  Yes, I see. But IMHO it's much more enjoyable to beat an engine which plays at
it's full strength and makes the best moves it can, than to play against a
strong
engine which intentionally makes stupid mistakes to let you win.
  How it "simulates" 1200 ELO? It finds the best moves, but doesn't make them,
and
intentionally weakens it's own position, or what?
(I'm just curious :) )
