What program would tear the crafty clone Data to >shreds!! (incredibly strong data is!) Or should I just go out and purchase >Chessmaster 6000 to do the Job? The best results I have had is with Hiarcs 7.01. I have not had a chance to play 7.32 online because of the testing I am running now. I most likely will only test Hiarcs 7.32 against humans online, after testing Hiarcs 7.01 online against other computers its left a bad taste in my mouth. I try to test against the best programs online and play a set amount of games, but with Hiarcs 7 this became almost impossible because of the high winning percentage Hiarcs 7 was generating. The automatic programs would no play me, or change the time formula to only play 0 inc games in the middle of my testing, and some of the other manuale computer operators were no better. Rating protection in online play is only getting worse, and thats to bad because it was a nice tool to use in the evaluation of chess programs.
