December 23, 200718 yr It is physically impossible for someone to be considered "unpredictable" on their second move, unless they did something stupid like uselessly sacrifice their queen, which would be considered more so as idiocy than anything else. There's also no way that the computer took more than twenty seconds to choose a move after your second one, so you're most likely either a) the most impatient person on the planet [who, if his standards hold for chess both off and on the computer, most likely has never completed a game in his life] or B) scared of losing and feeling the pains of ego deflation. It's most likely a combination of the two. Seriously, play a full game; I'd like to see how far your "unpredictability" gets you, hotshot. Nah, I'd have to side with Strowez on this one. I've played chess bots equal to the 'god-mode' level bots like Deep Blue, and like over 1 hour into the game, it can take 20+ seconds for the computer to make a single move, maybe even more. Didn't check out the AI of that site's bot yet, but if it's anything decent, yes it can take like half a min to calculate a move. And that's just against a typical player like me; I'm not even a chess fan or chess geek. Against a player like Garri Kasparov, the bots could take multiple minutes for moves that disable his winning/checkmating capability, even if the bot can calculate thousands of outcomes per second.
December 24, 200718 yr Nah, I'd have to side with Strowez on this one. I've played chess bots equal to the 'god-mode' level bots like Deep Blue, and like over 1 hour into the game, it can take 20+ seconds for the computer to make a single move, maybe even more. Which is why I put emphasis on the fact that he quit after the second turn, when moves take under ten seconds :P . Rebdragon, lets just quit this alright - if we keep argueing we will end up getting this thread locked. i dont want to be the result of that. i have played chess before, i dont play it often as,as you quite rightly said, im impatiant (sorry about the spelling). many apologies for being impatiant people, sorry for not being perfect, but its not as if i can become perfect all of a sudden, when someone actually becomes perfect let me know what to do. No one ever told you to be perfect. I'm not annoyed at all by the fact that you're impatient, I could care less. What I was asking for you not to try and emphasis, though, was the self-formed belief that you're "unpredictable", which was both egocentric and misinformed, from what I'm reading about how avid a chess player you are. Simply put, I wouldn't have cared if you had said "I'm too impatient for this, can't stand to play this game", it was just that self-afferming step further that kind of put me over the edge. No offense, but in the future, don't boast about your skills in a game that you rarely, if ever, play. It's a tad annoying :| .

December 24, 200718 yr I was doing good until I made 1 wrong move and the computer saw it. (People miss some of the mess ups but no, computer just had to notice it ) Shortly after I got obliterated.
December 24, 200718 yr I was doing great until I lost. That hurt my ego. I got a lot of his pieces, but that doesn't really matter in Chess. #-o I've really got to start playing again. I have a really nice marble board with granite pieces. sleep like dead men wake up like dead men

Which is why I put emphasis on the fact that he quit after the second turn, when moves take under ten seconds :P . Dammit, didn't see that. :oops: After the second turn, it really can't take that long for the bot to respond, because the possible outcomes after just two moves are very limited and easily calculated if the bot is anything half-decent.
December 24, 200718 yr Author blue- it was dacona that was inpatient not me O:) A friend to all is a friend to none.
December 24, 200718 yr I was looking ahead, and I saw exactly what he was going to do, I just couldn't stop it. I was 2 moves from checkmate. :( The code in my sig should say 1032 not 0132.
December 24, 200718 yr I've got the computer stuck.. It keeps moving between 2 spaces... \ I'm a thinker but am often short of words sorry if my posts are shorter than expected...OMG I cant wait for the cleaning skill! Congratz, You are now level 99 cleaning, you can clean rust stains with all new Extra Strength CLR!
December 25, 200718 yr Pretty impressive if you can make decent sence from all the possible moves. After taking all my pieces, he got my king :(
December 26, 200718 yr Think Machine 3 pl0x? I was doing preety good until it decide to go all AI on me. Get me a whopper!
December 26, 200718 yr impressive AI, but once I learned how to develop my peices while keeping him back in the begining, I started chasing him around (and sacrificing a rook and knight) until I won. My favorite start-game
December 26, 200718 yr ^ am i missing something? how did you get so many moves while the comp only did 1? Look its rob!
December 26, 200718 yr [Edit] Never mind that. :wall: I can't believe I overlooked that. This signature is intentionally left blank.
December 26, 200718 yr ^ am i missing something? how did you get so many moves while the comp only did 1? Not only that but it's white's move. Here's how you do it: W. Queen's pawn up 2 B. Queen's knight moves W. Queen's Bishop moves B. King's knight's pawn moves W. Queen's Pawn moves up 1 Black's knight retreats. -White's move- EDIT: It's not working now, before black would respond exactly the same every time
December 26, 200718 yr White moves first. He moved the pawn, the comp answered, then he moved the bishop. There's nothing more to it. The white pawn has taken two moves to get to that point though, can't make that in one move.
December 26, 200718 yr The computer completly wiped me out. I managed to take out a knight and a queen but my luck ended there. Pawns the rest of the way. I started the game at 11:30 so I lasted almost 30 minutes. I think that is a achivment against this computer. Ponies!
December 26, 200718 yr I got owned, let's have another try. I hope I can beat it sometime tonight... Being immature is a part of being mature.
December 26, 200718 yr LOL that was easy to beat.. when ever its the computer turn look at thr trails of move you can make against them..
December 26, 200718 yr I somehow achieved a draw, which is good enough for me - although when I looked at the final screen, he could have completely cornered my King in another two moves, and there'd have been no way I could have stopped it :?
