I was analysing an opening position with multiple lines displayed in Shredder and Rybka and observed some curious jumps in the evaluation function depending on the parity of side to move. I ran Shredder for about 24 hours and Rybka for 4 days. The position is from the English opening A33 : r1bq1rk1/pp1p1ppp/2n1pn2/8/1bPN4/2N3P1/PP2PPBP/R1BQ1RK1 b - - 0 8 With black to move. Conventional wisdom...

I am glad that we agree 100% on this for a change, a rare occurrence. The appointment of moderators Herbert Rodney Vaughn a/k/a tanstaafl, Gregory Alexander and Tim Sawmiller, who have long been known to be vehemently hostile and who have taken a definitive stand against two of our EB members, Sam Sloan and Beatriz Marinello, is indeed outrageous, especially when Vaughn, Alexander and Sawmiller...

Sanny, here are 2 useful exercises you can conduct to explore what are called MAMS studies. I would like you to set up 2 positions, and see if your program can solve them - they are called Kling&Horwitz Fortresses. Evidently Timman understood this well enough, since the first GM win was over Speelman 1992 Linares.

I've been searching the Web, trying to identify a handheld chess computer I had - I'd say about the early '80s - but having no luck. I got it at a used-items store (pointed out so you know it wasn't new when I bought it). It was an LED model that ran on a 9-volt battery, and came with a separate chess set, with the metal, algebraic-notation board on the outside of a fold-up wooden box to store...

Hi, I released a new version of ScidPocket (chess database and playing program) with some optimisations that makes all 6 embedded engines compute 60% to 100% more nodes per second. My guess is that the achieved ELO should be at least 2500 for some engines. http://prolinux.free.fr/scid/PPC.html Note that to take advantage of this improvement, the settings should be

I'm looking for volunteers each week to test the uVme games platform and was hoping that some of you might be interested in playing some great online games for free. The site access will be free of charge and there will be no joining fees etc! The company in fact deposits "play" credits into your e-wallet to do this. Also, most importantly there is no obligation whatsoever and all I need is...

Hi all! mamer is an acronymous for MAnage ME R. It is a program on Internet Chess Server acting as referee in chess tourneys on the internet. It looks very nice. I found easily the sources , for OS Linux, mamer.tgz but it's not portable and I couldn't compile it.

In Microsoft Vista OS there is a free game is called "Chess Titans", which, at the highest level, even a class C player can regularly beat. And the crummy program doesn't even allow you to save games, it just tracks how many games you've won. What a joke. 3D graphics are nice however. Likewise for Kasparov's sponsored program that you find on some Boeing 777 airplanes--even at the highest...

I'm having problems running CB9 under Vista Ultimate 32 bit. It was the only program of many that was flagged by the Vista Installer as possibly incompatible, and, even when run under XP emulation mode, the program is very slow.
