Ponti Hi Ponti, There was a post on here a couple of weeks ago that stated that Hiarcs and some other programs don't work as well when playing increment games in engine- vrs. engine matches on a single computer. Plus, even if this isn't true there aren't near enough games played that will prove anything up to this point, as- there needs to be several hundred games played to show any kind of proof which engine "possibly" could be the strongest!
