I recently switched from R=2 to R=3 in Prophet. It looked very promising at first... I got my first two wins against Arasan on ICC. However, after watching more games, it seems a bit too aggressive. Prophet completely self destructed against Tinker almost right out of the opening. I'll have to experiment a bit, but I'll probably settle on some R=2/3 compromise. How many of you use R=2? R=3? If you do R=2/3, what kind of algorithm do you use to decide? I used one proposed by (I think) Vincent in Tristram: don't allow R=3 twice in a row (or three times in a row?), and it seemed to work pretty good. -- James
