This would usually indicate a move is coming... |
|
| Aug-04-08 | | hoodrobin: No move today, resigning tomorrow?
(sorry, I shouldn't have said that ;) |

Nice version of the Simon and Garfunkel song. Since the line <I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep> is in the original and not hugely chessical, you might consider changing it to something like <I'm checkered and cornered
and ready to leap>
Just a thought. |

| Aug-04-08 | | firebrandx: <kb2ct: <dotsamoht:
My understanding is that Shredder is the program and Rybka is an engine I can install into Shredder to upgrade its performance. Is this correct? So when you give analysis from Rybka, you mean Shredder using Rybka... right?> Until recently, Rybka did not have its own graphics user interface. If you wanted to use it and see a chessboard, you had to install it as a UCI engine in Shredder or Fritz. :0)
>
Technically Rybka is still just an engine. Rybka 3 has to be used in one of either two GUI flavors: 1. Fritz GUI from Chessbase
2. Aquarium GUI from Convetka
|
|
| Aug-04-08 | | zanshin: <firebrandx> I think you can add Chess Assistant to that list. |
|
| Aug-04-08 | | amadeus: "Rybka 3 UCI is not a standalone program and works only in other popular interfaces e.g. Fritz, ChessBase 9, Shredder, Junior, Hiarcs, Chess Assistant." From: http://store.convekta.com/shop_mode... I'd guess we can add Arena (and Aquarium) too. |
|
| Aug-04-08 | | zanshin: Not to be too picky, but ISTM that Rybka 3 is being packaged with 3 GUIs: Fritz by Chessbase and Aquarium and Chess Assistant by Convekta. If you get the Rybka 3 UCI engine alone, well then you are correct ... that should work with any GUI that supports UCI (universal chess interface) protocols. |

| Aug-04-08 | | Boerboel Guy: <klangenfarben> You do not know what experiences I have with overseas clients... so please don't surmise anything. And no, am and pm is not the standard practice and certainly not in the international computer industry (in which I work). There is no need to get upset over a perceived 'ridicule' LOL |

< amadeus: "Rybka 3 UCI >I just paid for Rybka 3 UCI for download via paypal as per their
instructions.
But lost contact to the Convecta site and lost my order. Do you know how
to recover my order for which i do have the Transaction ID in print form. |

That might work. After all, art is never completed, only abandoned... :-) Just a thought. |

 | | GoldenKnight: I believe my Shredder comes with the Fritz interface and I also have Rybka installed in it, so I now have all three. When I do get Rybka 3, it will probably be Aquarium, unless ChessBase with its Monte Carlo analysis seems better. Any comments on the latter? |
|

 | | moronovich: <crawfb5> Some say Art was completed when Paul was there .:) |
|
| Aug-04-08 | | ravel5184: Well, I guess I'll stick to my "ravel5184 CC" thing in the GMAN game since I don't get to be the marker-placer-thingy! |
|
| Aug-04-08 | | ravel5184: Speaking of which, we need him to resign before October 1st or I won't be able to! |

<When I do get Rybka 3, it will probably be Aquarium, unless ChessBase with its Monte Carlo analysis seems better. Any comments on the latter?> That Monte Carlo idea; we should check it against a real KNOWN position: this game after <37...Ra7>. Will it find <38.h4>? And when? |
|
| Aug-04-08 | | firebrandx: I've already purchased the Chessbase Deep Rybka 3 version. They have to ship it to me, but when it arrives, I'll try it out on the Ra7 position. |

It's the position after <36...c3>; the move <37.Nf6> is commented as contra intuitive. It takes Fruit 17-ply to find it; what about the Monte Carlo analysis? |

< amadeus > < Re downloading Rybka 3 from Convekta Ltd > I want to get also other products from them. But are they a legitimate /thrust worthy company? Anyway, they do advertise Rybka download for much less then chessbase. But when placing an order they just fate away. I hope my order via visa
is secure since I can not cancel it.
Even Paypal gives me now problem with my account overview etc.
They seem to have an old e-mail address for which I have no access
anymore. But my account lo-gin demands my old address which I did use
last time to pay for my chessgames premium membership fee. I did try to phone but could not find a way past the computer
answering wizard. Oh well looks like I am getting to old and obsolete
in this computer age. And I wanted to buy a new computer in order to keep up with you for the next game. I better forget about it and just keep using my own ticker for what ever worth. |

And just so everyone knows, User: dotsamoht has accepted this role for the next game. To clarify matters (and this means you <sentriclecub> ;-)), <kutz> is not stepping down from anything. Far from it. I cleared this with him before announcing I would like to step down from my role in maintaining the sticky in order to focus on forum preparation. The roles are parallel, but different. And since we had a recent influx of new and willing Premum members, I thought this would be a good time to step down. Thanks for the offer for assistance <sentriclecub>. There will be plenty to do next game. |
