Rybka 3 stronger than Rybka 4 CCRL

[M ANSARI]

Relax guys,that was an early beta and a beta is not a release version. The latest beta being tested now is beating everything out there, including the clones. I can't believe that on a computer chess forum, where almost everyone can be considered a computer geek or at least very knowledgeable in how software works, people are considering early beta versions as being the final product.

I didn't see any engine authors or contributors to testing sites giving credence to the beta results. Perhaps you need to up your standard for what qualifies as computer geek .

You cannot say _early_ when it is almost time for release

This is not Rybka4
This is only Rybka4 beta.

You cannot get conclusions from it about rybka4.
There is no known limit for the possible difference in playing strength
between Rybka4 beta and Rybka4.

Hi Uri
I fully agree and do not doubt that the final version of Rybka 4 will be stronger than Rybka 3.

You will not get my best effort as a programmer for Rybka 4, my best effort will be saved for the rental version.
I will dummy down Rybka 4 and then charge you $139 for a crippled non rental version.
Also just for your information I also will lie about the kns readout on your newly purchased Rybka 4.
Of course there is still no Fruit code in Rybka 4.
