I'm sorry, Paul. That would require a skill set that I have never taken the time to acquire.
I am happy to do it if you wish.
Ed,

As long as the intent of my report is honored, I would be grateful if you did make a web page for it.

Thanks Luis. It certainly does not help if all they do is create noise.

I am extremely flattered by your compliment. You are one of the people in the community that I have great respect for (even if I don't always agree with you :) ).

Hello Adam,

100% agreement with that statement.

From my perspective, it also applies to you.

Later.
Ditto. :wink:

That's quite interesting, what did Christopher say ?

And there is Rolf, he predicted right from the beginning, that this case if continued it would split the CC community into parts.

Conkie can correct me if necessary, but he said it was not "un-original" enough to prove anything. If my memory failed me- no doubt I will be corrected.


Best,

duh , :? nothing personal but " not "un-original" enough "

not pregnant enough to have a baby ?

not enough robbolito to be houdinilotto 1.5 ?


when is enough enough springs to mind

as i am sure some here will paste and copy, even with slight changes and call it an original idea :roll:

You make valid points of course but i still think the forum is what keeps this in the news with Chessbase refutations as late as a few days ago..months after the ICGA decision
i guess if this happened to a commercial program like Shredder or Junior(both without forums).. then we would see if there would be such a rift...So late in the day
i guessing there wouldn't be

I think it's not related having a forum but all to Rybka's extreme dominance and then suddenly dethroned, not on the chess board but driven by politics. Lots of juicy dramatic elements, a story you only see once in a lifetime.

for the delusional

rybka was de throned by ivanhoe mod 63 , it crushed rybka 3 at every time control , the firt mp engine to do so ,

smp robbolito crushed rybka in (obviously ) single core tests


do your believe with the 7 day evangelists as well ed
or just in mischievously misleading others :?:

Are you familiar with programming, especially with chess programming? And just in case you aren't, do you think that it is up to non-programmers to judge how "overwhelming" such evidence really is?
natasha wrote:whilst rybka has such cretins as Bill Strong , chris dick whittington and more plus puppets like poor ed and the band wagon jumpers this will continue untill they are pushing up daisy's
Why those insults? Why not just stating your different opinion? Note, this is a thread started by someone who tried to come up with something substantially neutral (even if you don't believe it, as you wrote), so if there is any place where personal insults are most misplaced then I think it is here.

analogies are not "personal" attacks , despite your perception's

nor are simple facts , not that you seem bothered by those on rykbas band wagon posting untruths

as for Adams initial post

our friends sent the report to all its forum members in a news letter as was
also to all members of Ippolit wiki . (as was )

pretty fair wouldnt you say :?:

unlike your attempt to put words in our mouths

find where we wrote "we do not believe this report " go on just reread
our first post in this thread
