Go up one level in this thread


So out of 2 million games played, _this_ is the only game that this position can
be reached from?

Are you sure? (This is a loaded question btw)

I cleaned the source just for the sake of comments..

I think for once Chandler you better just admit you are wrong, and learn that
engines _can_ be optimized from a position and not an ECO classification
database.

Why do you think people run matches based on the Nunn positions as a starting
point?

For you to distinctly state that the above game is the _only_ game that the
position could be arrived from is complete horse cocky.. and you know it.

I think you are simply arguing this point just to argue.. nothing more.

So I will exit it, as we are not going to gain any ground with you taking a
position that simply does not agree with fact.
