I have a score of +12 pawns for black.
You guys really play it out to the bitter end.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.
mmt was close to resigning many moves ago, but someone requested the game to be played until it's obvious even to the human eye that white is dead lost.

p.s. The eval just dropped ....maybe a mate in 37 or less....

Okay, this looks roughly the same level of difficulty as your mate-in-N test.
Do you know what that means? It means Ovyron will spend weeks trying to find it!

What quickest mate can you find here?
Mate in 36 is good enough, I'm not looking to set any records. It was pretty easy to find, even Ovyron should be able to find this one!

Poor Komodo is not looking so good in this game. But it looks like it can often find short mates (e.g. in 12 moves) faster than SF10.
I never have liked Komodo very much. I used it a few time several years ago, but it always seemed to be so much slower than SF, so I quit using it.
Only 2 defining forces have ever offered to die for you.....Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

No, remember what my point was: fastest mates are useless, once the game is decided you have no reason to shorten the game. If mmt plans on playing till mate at some point I switch strategies to try to play the slowest mate, carrying the game for as many moves as I can and still win, just to show how your challenge had nothing to do with real games like this.
