I would like to see the exact rules given to Freezer and the exact analysis provided in return.

Rule1: If White's queen is captured = draw
Rule2: If White's pawn promotes = white win
Rule3: If Black's king leaves the 8 squares f8,g8,h8,f7,g7,h7,g6,h6 = white win
Rule4: If Black's rook leaves the squares b6, c6, f6, f2, h6 = white win
Rule5: If Black's pawns leave the squares g7, h6, g5 = white win
Rule6: If White's pawn advances = white win
Rule7: If Black's pawn promotes = white win
Rule8: If Black's rook is captured = white win unless the capturing piece can be recaptured = draw
Rule9: If a Black pawn is captured = white win unless the capturing piece can be captured = draw
Note that the vast majority of the rules favor White.

The output from position
[D] 3Q4/6pk/5r1p/4K2P/8/8/8/8

WTM all moves = draw
BTM Rf6-c6 or Rf6-f2 draw, all other moves lose.

All 3-4-5 tablebases present. Only some 6-man present.
All tablebases were checked to not be corrupted using Wilhelm, but only in the distant past, not immediately prior to running Freezer.

QED? I hope so, this is much further than I ever intended to go with such a trivial position.


It's ludicrous, to have to go to such measures to appease a few skeptics.

Robin, you are a far more patient man than I.

Terry

Hi Terry,
I'm not really interested in this position for the chess, which is as you and others have pointed out quite trivial. However as a philosophical matter it is interesting to me to see what people will and will not accept as proof.


Indeed!
