Who do you think is our best bet at the moment to upset the 152 point lead? I'll place my bet on Bright and Toga to restore the balance, but they may need to pull some IM's and GM's on the team to do it.

I would bet on Toga also if people keep working on it.
Don't count out Naum and Zappa.

Or Zappa with a new name (the author said he could not touch the code again so he would need to begin from scratch, but doing so may give a better engine than Zappa.)

If he could not touch the code again, then maybe he could release it (GPL Style). I am sure others would not mind touching it! :lol:

He could not "touch" it to give it away. ;)

So, he basically said that he got rid of the code, though I wonder if that's actually true.

We need to teach him how to "Undelete", but for some reason I think he already knows how ... 8-)

Bright too farback to cause havoc. Naum, Hiarcs, Zappa if anthony still is interested, Shredder, Toga & Fritz

What's up with it? Has the full code been released?

Possibly stronger than Rybka 2.3.2a, but Rybka 3? They would basically need to not release DF11 and call DF12 "DF11" for this to work.

A well optimized and modified Toga is the one to bet on....
Deep Fritz 11 is the other option....
Looking at the rating list,I don't think anyone else has the real chance to reduce the huge gap let alone to close it....
