u know I do not think many people are familiar with WChess, it was a great program. Played very tactical chess, screwed with nps, played a different game AND played so called weird moves in the endgame but it was always right, amazing. i used the DOS version for a long time (me luv u long time) kinda thing

Marty, come back and make MChess Pro a UCI engine. As you can see many would like to see it to. You will not become a millionaire but it's still liked. I also cherished the times I talked to you on the phone about computer chess. Hope you are doing well dude. I know you are a smart person!

I am always nostalgic about installing MChess with the 3.5 discs. You had 3 installs with MChess Pro install,nice.

What has happened is what Don and others see is that having computer beat computer has left humans out so a HUMAN engine is needed and would do good, Let's face it computers can kick our hineys. People WANT a human engine.

Oh by the way Marty, Bruce the powerhouse programmer said he always liked the way you did the selective searching algorithm for your program. He found it interesting. I loved battling ferret with your program. I'd lose more than I won but they were awesome games. Many people would watch those battles. I want to see Ferret back again too. I'll say it till I die, Bruce has the discs under his pillow,heeheee. I KNOW he's working on it.
