I think it's not up to me to count or not. I have my own little abacus which goes a bit further than a won/draw/loss result only. Personally I see no reason why these games should not be count for a TPR. I am really looking forward to this match and hope to watch a few games live on ICC. Vincente if you are reading this: the best settings are: - default settings + "anti-GM=SMART" - run Rebel with the "a" and "b" parameter. Example REBEL.EXE A B W8 W8 : hash table size = 60 Mb A : Rebel will focus on the opponent clock B : Aggressive book-learning (definitely needed in a match) In case you need help with the book you can contact me by email (info@rebel.nl) or Jeroen (jnoomen@uni-one.nl). I hope to see great games! Ed
