Go up one level in this thread

Well, I tried mine out on these at 1 min / position on a P6/200
and got the key move in 10 out of 16, but no mates.  I then tried
them at 1/2 hr each and still got 10/16 and no mates.  Finally, I
tried the first one for two hours -- still no mate...

On the next to last (BWTC.0647) my program likes to force a
repetition draw all the way through the 18 ply search -- no
guarantee there isn't a mate though.

-Dan.

PS.  I noticed the EPD strings weren't quite standard: there
shouldn't be a semicolon directly after the EP target square,
but there should be one after the last "operation".  My program
didn't seem to mind though...
