>Sorry but you are wrong. Should I spend 1/2 my time testing with ponder=off >to be sure that it works optimally? Or should I spend 100% of my time testing >in the way where the program plays the strongest? Well, looking at it this way, you're right, it is probably not worth to spent to much time on this ponder off mode. >ponder=off was done to allow me to do some testing on one machine with two >programs, but for _debugging_, not anything else. >If I thought that this mode >would be used to play 'real games' I would either test more (wasted time) or >eliminate ponder=off completely. _either_ of those options would be bad IMHO... You're right, may be it is worth mentioning it in the documentation, this would take 5 minuts (if you haven't done it alraedy) this would shut the mouth of all the guys there ready to draw conclusions on the bases of winboard/fritz tournaments. bye Franz
