Got it, thanks!
Just a quick note here Nick

there is no need for you to wait for Graham to declare the forums move..since you are now operating you can do it if you want to
Graham is not a Captain or something similar
the operator of the computer has been counting up the votes and declaring the forum move since we started these games back in July
when i operated the R30 in Game 1 i counted
When Ray operated Biglion in game 2 ..he counted
Game three was a combo of Ray counting when he operated Ufim and then back to me when the London 030 took over

for this game..Graham counted as he was relaying moves to Ray operating Daydreamer
now since you are operating the MDC its probably best if you count and then declare the move once you see a consensus is reached or the TC has been reached
its up to you if you dont want the extra burden but i think it makes the game go smoother actually ,and it worked very nicely that way in the first 3 games

Best Regards
Steve

Hi Steve,

Got it ;) I was tempted to stop last night, but since it was only about 12 hours, I thought it fair for all the players to have a chance to vote, to leave it overnight. However, I did set the computer to the popular move last night:

24. Qxg4

But, was ready to change the move this morning if anything drastic happened.

MDC will respond in a couple of hours :wink:

Best regards

Nick

Well, MDC has just started the first search of the next depth, which would take ages to get through, therefore will stop MDC here.

MDC Forum move is:

24. ... Qa6

[d]5rn1/p4ppk/q2p3p/2p1r1P1/2PpP1QP/3P2N1/3b1PN1/1R3RK1 w - - 0 3

Best regards

Rbd1, preparing f4 and f5.

Black have to move bishop out of c1-h6 diag (or block its queen in a5, avoiding she help in black's defence).
