WOW!

The Return of the clowns!

I never expected that there would be a new releases of clones of Fruit!
Here is the new Legal clone of Fruit called Gambit Fruit!

Has anyone tested it?

What are the conditions to be met to release a new Fruit legal clone?
hmm..It's better than creating a chessmaster Personality.

If I'm right regarding the legal cone releases,That the program would never be
allowed to participate in any events,I've confirmed this from Bob and Uri at ICC
during the Crafty-Sjeng WCCC Match.

Only less number of testers would test clones.
If you make a legal clone out of 1900 ELO,No one would even test!I mean no one!
and If you make a clone out of Fruit!with elo averaging 2650,Most testers bother
to spend their time letting Fruit clones to play in their long tome control
tourneys,beat the original Fruit etc
some Students with a degree in computer science are very licky as they would
enjoy having a chess engine which he didn't program the whole code but just
modified very little from the fruit code and he makes a statement that his
engine is a legal clone of Fruit available for free download with source.Soon he
will let his friends know that he actually had written a chess engine!hmmm...but
who cares
