Hi Tony, the UCI Engines Ligue page has logos for both of those engines:

How long does it take your engine to find it? :? My worthless piece of crap engine would melt my CPU into a smouldering heap before it would be able to find this. However, a decent engine like Bright finds it in about 6 minutes on my Acer Aspire 5100 laptop (256 MB hash): FEN: 1rb4r/1pb3kp/p2q1pp1/...

As long as the finished product plays good chess and preferably gives the thinking lines and evaluation, isn't that all that should really concern us? Just my opinion of course. :wink: Regards, Graham. I agree with you on this. However, Rybka seems to truncate its PVs, and I wouldn't mind seeing fu...

Hi Marc. I was also using a PIV 2.4 for my testing. This position, unbelievably, comes from a 10' blitz game on Playchess between a 1550ish chump playing white (me) and a 1750ish chump playing black (some other guy). I played Nxg5 in the game, but for all the wrong reasons. I had mistakenly thought ...

Thanks Tony ... one to you, though that one is also in Wikipedia under 'Chess Blunders'. Tim Krabbe also has a set of cases where one player resigned rather than play the winning move - incredible but true. Third source is the '??' in GK's 'My Predecessors' - though these are not always drop-dead-o...
