If random mode is off, typically Yace will always chose the same opening move in the same position (the one that was most often played/most successful in the PGN from which the book was made). With random mode on, it will randomly chose between different moves (the probability for chosing the several alternatives will not be equal, but rather based on the PGN from which the book was made). Especially for a longer match, I think random on will be better. If you have two engines, that use something like the random off mode, you'll get many dupes. Or just a fight of the learning features. BTW. Yace book learning is poorly passive. It will not try to repeate won games. It will try to avoid lines, with which it has lost. Cheers, Dieter
