Hi Fabien, congratulations again for your second place at WCCC 2005 achived with as single processor hardware too! Yes, Columbus' egg is very aggressive. In some games/openings even too much, but I personally like extremely high complicated positions and this settiing has a tendency to look more to reach them rather than flat ones, so I was wondering if it is weakening the program or not in total. Because to find out that it needs a lot of games I hoped some one could have been interested to make them. Unfortunately I have too many defects...on of them is a tendency to have things done very quickly...I cannot wait...this is what we call..."born out of two months"...do you understand what I mean? So, I got the impression from Alex post he was stating that Columbus' egg is "over aggressive" (too aggressive), but in my tests so far this seems not true. Going back to you and to Fruit, I think Fruit 2.1 is quite strong and I like the way it play, so I am waiting to see the new version when it will be available. If it will not be linked to Vincent, I will surely get it. Ciao Sandro
