If you shoved it down my throat and said I'm out of it, YES!


Here's something Chan sent me, you figure it out.

So why are you doing this to yourself?

We are in a unique situation where we have MODS with great Scientific
background. It is certainly not their 'obligation' to share that experience.
But.. it would be nice if they would, and to help teach & educate here,
as Posters not as Mods. Many here are in the dark about how the Programs and the
engines they use work. This includes some Programmers..
like Uri, who really hasn't a clue.
I've had to drag him kicking & screaming into the world of reality!
He didn't know that the Program evaluates every legal move in eveery position on
the board! Every position on the board Is a Root Position.
Bruce didn't know that EGTB's truly present perfect play from all 5 man
positions.
This is "DUMBSHIT"

Do you just want to piss everyone off, get revenge for previous suspensions?

NO, I was banned for telling the Truth on both Forums.
ICC is hostile to Players, and those who bust bubbles, and their Urban Myths.


Computers malfunction btw, it's people who are dysfunctional.
No, Computers do two things.
1. They Store and retrieve information  (no more ..no less)
2. They "Evaluate" based on feedback from the Min-Max Algorithm
   No more.. no less...
They have NO intelligence!
Do you really think Hyatt is going to stake his reputation by denying how Chess
Computer Programs work?
I think not..
Oh.. he may vote to ban me.. he has threatened that already.
Do I give a Rat's Patootie?
I will Post truth. for I have Integrity, and that's what's important  in life.

At least mine... you can go with the flow and the "DUMBASSES" here
I won't!
 ===============================================================================

This was sent to me shortly before the suspension was in effect.


It went downhill from here.
