A couple of new historic video's

[Rebel]

I got some old video material from a CSVN member. It includes the WMCC Amsterdam 1985, German TV coverage of the WCCC Cologne 1986 (no sign of the winner ) and AEGON 1997 including the broadcast of the Vishy Anand and Jan Timman simultan.

If someone is willing to put them on Youtube I can add the links.

Oh yeah, there is a new ProDeo also.

I'll do it, Ed. Give me two days.

Thanks Ed

It is always great to have more recordings of CC history, and the concept behind the newest ProDeo looks interesting.

Do not forget to include the "Fern Function". Just every two moves the engine play a losing one.
It would be appreciated.

Good old fERN

Do not forget to include the "Fern Function".

Mail (or upload) your games in PGN instead and I will make a personal database of it so you instantly will be remembered on every position you have played. But maybe that's too traumatic?

well, Ed, I recovered my trust on me after my arrival at home,. i got a draw from ex chess, which is a strong engine, and so i feel myself a genius these days.....

I will see if I deign to play pro deo....

proud regards

cool is the advanced star chess from CXG on the cologne championship.
Kaare Danielsen in the interview telling about his brute force program )

in the user tournament, there is a guy interviewed from a chess club, behind him there is IMO a guy from mephisto. whats his name ?

and when berliner is interviewed, we see Thomas Nitsche , or ?? sitting there (~25')

at 28' you can see siggi schütte (ex chess development manager saitek) behind fölsing ))
