> >Ha! Ha! Ha! I wasn't expecting to finish all 56 by Christmas. :) >But I'll work on it, no of course not in fact i would love it if you strung the tournament out to last through the holidays right up till New Years Day with all of these Rybka posts the CCC has gotten very boring lately :)) >One thing I found really surprising, just downright shocking in fact! If you >look at the SSDF full rating list, you'll find they never played the Atlanta >against the Berlin Pro! This seems like such a natural matchup that I'm really >surprised, especially for say, 1997. nice observtion! but it dosent surprise me actually by 1997 the SSDF was mainly interested in the PC programs and dedicated computers took second fiddle evn if a new one came along Ruud had to beg the SSDF to test the Res and to my knowledge they still havent tested it..although i think he mentioned they agreed to do so I'm so >busy moving pieces, even doing just one game at a time that I'm not sure if it's >my head or the chess boards that are spinning! believe me i know the work involved when i play tested the Res-Ruffian and Res-Fruit 05 against the Tasc's and other computers it was hard work especially when i pitted Res-Ruffian against Res-Fruit 05.i had to write down the moves because there was no feature for the Res to show the game score thankfully this has now been corrected in the 2.06 bug fix i know some collectors on .INFO that actually have 2-3 matches going at the same time..thats 4-6 computers at once i have no idea how they can do this with any degree of sanity i think what happens when you play more then one game at a time..the other units are sitting there waiting for you to make the move and all the while the engines are pondering i think its not so reliable the results when that happens best way for a true test of strength is one game at a time(IMO) Best Steve
