Well,

yestday homer lost on ChessWar against THOR'S HAMMER 2.28 in a crazy game.
During the game i noticed at a special point there is a bug in my KingSecurity
function. Homer looking for a pawnshild, but don't checking if the king is
really behind the pawns and not in front of.

THOR'S HAMMER vs Homer:

[D]r6r/1p3ppp/1n1bkn2/p2p4/P1pP4/2N1PN2/1P3PPP/R1B2RK1 b - -

Interesting is that allso top engines having no ideas what's going on here. A
big score for white should be come here.

A few move before we reached this position in the same game:

r4b1r/1p3ppp/1n2kn2/p2pN3/P1pP4/4P3/1P3PPP/RNB2RK1 w - -

Homer moved here Kf5?? (see bug in KinSecurity). But a lot of engines do this
too.



Best,
Daniel
