Qf7+ - Christopher, Matthias, Steve, Gerold

I think at this stage of the game I can accept that move early

Edit: Oh, and then BigLion throws a tantrum

Engine 'BigLion 2.23x CCC': UCI implementation fault: illegal end of ponder search!
best move: Ke6-e5 time: 0:00.078 min


I'll have to set up the position again to continue

Bad :evil:
So BigLion ponders against the rules when there is nothing to ponder about ?
Now I am afraid this will happen often when there is only one legal move :(

What do you think Matthias
should we play on to mate or let BL resign with some grace in the next few moves?

Ray your thoughts on that?

personally i think there is no need to play until mate or with evals of -10..-15.. etcetc ..but if the other forum players are interested in that sort of thing i guess we play on?l
