Dear Doctor Wesler,

Rybka 2.3.2a is perfectable. Wait for version 3.x. Eventually, we will
have near perfection. It might take another ten to fifty years.

PS I have noticed that Rybka 2.3.2a draws many games at blitz with
Rybka 1.2 but does better at slower time controls on my old AMD
1500 MHz machine with 512 MB RAM. Rybka 2.3.2a is the best Rybka so far but it still has many holes in it.

Specific program questions are best directed at their developers as Rybka do have an active forum. Having said that there are pranksters who claim that they can beat Rybka at 3 mins but on examination of the games they have taken back many times.

If you can attach a few of the games as well as details of the settings/book used to it would be helpful.
