Therefore it's unfair to include it in this poll.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Perhaps if there was a poll on which was the best engine specific Arena book, the Rybka.abk book would win hands down?

Regards, Graham.

PS - Chris and Wael - please don't start getting personal again! :(
I am told this.......

....by the experts?

So I make a poll....and I put it in the poll. Now all of a sudden it's an engine specific book and should not qualify.

They can't have it both ways.

Do you think iBase or Wizard Book would have been better vote getters?

:D

Do you think if Rybka.abk was leading the poll they would complain?

:D

My poll has been a great success.

Regards

Hi Christopher,

no they wouldn't complain, but I'd still say it's wrong to include it in this poll regardless. :P

No,it's not a clear result,too little people has voted so far,
more people must give their opinion....
