Three Players are fighting hard to get to top Position at GetClub Chess. Games Played at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html nomorechess : Points Awarded 17.5 chrisf : Points Awarded 17.3 Zebediah : Points Awarded 18 It looks like one of chrisf and Zebediah is actually "Taylor Kingston" As Zebediah is playing most games with Master Level which only "Taylor Kingston" is capable of beating. You can view This Months Competition with Full Details at http://www.getclub.com/gameresult.php?month=Oct&year=2006 Currently the Ratings of Games Played at GetClub Games are Beginner: 1600 (10-20 seconds.) Easy: 1650 (20-40 seconds.) Normal: 1700 (1-2 Minutes.) Do not play with Master and Advance Levels as they take lot of time. Only Taylor Kingston can beat Them.

At one time it was possible to somewhat counteract the slothfulness of Sanny's program by playing multiple games at once, although this didn't quite work on my computer because having more than one browser open slowed things even further. Some people were disconnecting when losing, then restarting a new game, so Sanny changed the program and it is no longer possible (I suspect) since it wants to put you into the game already in progress. I was joking of course about the computer use. Although I have yet to replay even a single game of these newcomers, ChrisF and Zedidiah, an examination of Taylor Kingston's games revealed a definite lack of computer-like energy and razor-sharpness. Then (he says) he reappeared anew as Pfusher, winning much more quickly than before; I don't know if these later games utilized computers or not, nor can I be certain with "Bob" since he lost once (impossible if he used any decent program unless the result of operator error). IMO, were I to use a top-level program at GetClub the likely result would be a series of miniatures, alternating with micro-miniatures, with but a few endgame mop-up jobs tossed in for good measure. While there could be a few sadistic types out there in internetland, it is somewhat unlikely that any of the leading contestants at present are after anything other than fame and glory. And of course, the babes. : >D -- help bot

It's losing games. Please speak English. My view is that the computer is losing to everyone else (Pfuscher, ChrisF, Zedediah) because they are all using powerful chess programs to cheat. Of course, it is losing to me because I am simply a chess genius, and no chess program, however well constructed, can compete with true genius. -- The Best, by test

Ouch, that hurts a bit :-) You only need patience to beat it, not skill. I tried playing advanced, and it just took too long (I can't say for sure because I had to leave and come back a lot - but upwards of 10-12 hrs "thinking time" for the program). Otherwise, master level takes around 3 hrs. Even beginner often goes into long thinks which can last 10 minutes. Thankfully, you can shut down and come back to the game later.

Can anyone Analyze the Games Played at GetClub Chess. RECORDED GAMES: http://www.getclub.com/cc/showgame.php?num=10 As if you can find mistake then only I can improve the GetClub Game. There are many Games Played at Normal and Master Levels. Play a game at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html I want to know why the Computer is loosing games against "Zebediah" and "chrisf". They look like very good players. "Zebediah" and "chrisf" may get ahead of Taylor Kingston and Nomorechess also. Bye Sanny Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html

Sanny, in fact your Advance level can be beaten by many players, provided they have the patience to complete the game. In addition, even a total putz can beat the top levels by simply using a commercial chess program -- again, provided they have the time and the patience to see it through. > You can view This Months Competition with Full Details at > http://www.getclub.com/gameresult.php?month=Oct&year=2006 > > Currently the Ratings of Games Played at GetClub Games are > > Beginner: 1600 (10-20 seconds.) > Easy: 1650 (20-40 seconds.) > Normal: 1700 (1-2 Minutes.) > > Do not play with Master and Advance Levels as they take lot of time. > Only Taylor Kingston can beat Them. I have recently noticed another increase in the displayed depth of search. For instance, in the game I am currently playing the middle level leaped to 10 plys without much ado, which is deeper than the Advance level used to go most of the time. And many times the program now comes up with respectable moves, but not always. For instance, in my current game: 1.e4 c5 2.c3 Nf6 3.e5 Nd5 4.Bc4 Nb6 5.d3 This move is not so good, but I decided to let it go for now and see what happens. ... Nc6 6.Bxf7+?? When the game is complete, you can check if I remembered these moves correctly. In any case, the program sac'ed a Bishop for one lousy pawn and, say, two spite checks. The game is all but over here, at move six. It may take another fifty or sixty moves to trade down to a won endgame, but it's, as they say, in the bag. No way can I lose this game. Impossible. (What's this-- another piece sac? And a Queen check? and then two more pieces sac'ed, followed by me being mated with a pawn? Noooooooooooooooooooo!) -- help bot
