Uri, Are you saying that each program should have a list of 1000 games hidden in the installation for each opponent which would soon become obsolete once their opponents ran their program against the new version a couple of thousand times and then modified their openings and their own 1000 games accordingly? Sounds like the US/Soviet escalation of the 60s through 80s. Everyone tries to get better at any cost, really aren't getting better (it's just a perception), and don't know why they are doing it. It would also be strange that one program would have a 19-1 record against one strong known opponent and a 13-7 record against one somewhat weaker and newer opponent (since it didn't have the 1000 games for that one, it would actually have to play the games). Sounds like cheating just to get ahead. Bogus. KarinsDad > >Uri
