Don't like duplicates in any form or short draws in this context. I usually upgrade with corr-games > 2200 during the year - but OTB-games once a year. Sources are ICCF, IECC, IECG, national corr-tourneys, CB:s MegaBase + own findings. Previously I also used Ajedrez and the Argentinian Partidas Gratis. Looks like the latter ended the upgrades jan-05 though. Sad, because they presented CB-quality. Link: http://www.ajedrez-de-estilo.com.ar/ade/pg/index.html I don't do engine-engine matches - but use this "PowerBook" when I play myself vs engines. It presents a tough, massive wall of knowledge...Since I'm no longer a tournament player myself (have no time for that) - this is of course a real challenge, considering my own very rusty repertoir...;-) Best /S
