Hi Rolf, you write that you were "totally surprised" by the fact that some information about Rybka will be posted on Swedish chessforum - combined with a post here where a German 1800 player built a fortress and got a draw from Rybka. This paradox is obviously beyond your frame of mind so you ask: "What is the meaning"? Then you construct your own answer: "he comes here and wants to prove that - surprise surprise! - Rybka has certain barriers in his perception." So I will give you mine: 1) I think Rybka deserves to be known among the OTB chess players. As a beta she has shown extraordinary strength and a piece handeling + middlegame that is worthy attention. She comes from "nowhere" and tops the lists right away. The development is rapid. More knowledge is added. Crushing match victory, with a Rybka book, vs Fritz 9 - game 90' - is news to the tournament player. Therefore I will write about her in Swedish chess forum. 2) I share the surprise, joy and delight with Christoph Fieberg - rating about 1800 - who found that he could turn a lost game into a draw, by building a fortress in the game vs Rybka - and getting a draw. That man was happy. At the same time an interesting position happened - that could be looked upon by Vasik. Those are the reasons why I posted this game. 3) Posting interesting games/positions where Rybka shows a wrong evaluation could present interesting material to the author - and we all know that Vasik participates actively on this computer chess forum.
