No problem, Peter!

I just read a few comments on your posting and it reminded me again why it is pointless and a waste of time to come here.

Odd. I give you a well meant compliment and now I am being accused of being sarcastic! What on earth is wrong with CCC!? Seeing this thread exploding and turning into the usual mud slinging (what a surprise...), it is time to leave again. Peter, I really hope this tournament will be played, because ...

Best idea in computer chess since ages! You clearly have my vote, as this will be the most interesting computer chess tournament in history. Bravo Peter!

Probably you will also promote 'free' music sites, instead of paying for regular CD's :lol: My God, you are such a loser, it is about time to stop wasting any more time on you.

Final standings 30th Dutch Open, Leiden:

1. Rybka 8.5/9
2. Spike, Deep Sjeng, Hiarcs 6.0/9

Congrats to Vasik (engine), Lukas (hardware), Jiri (book) and Hans (operator).

Apparently you are a very angry man, having no problems with Rybka derivatives (even promoting them), which are 90% more closer to Rybka than Rybka to Fruit :lol: In the mean time your posting is completely missing my point, which was to answer mr Houdarts claim that Houdini is playing completely di...

as will be obvious to anyone watching Rybka play vs Houdini, their styles of play are very different, their evaluations are different, their main lines are very different, and their overall strenghts and weaknesses are very different. This is the most funny comment I have been reading since a while...

Both Cluster Rybka and Cluster Sjeng would destroy IvanHoe with ease. So 3rd place is the best it could hope for.
