Backoff its no my intention to initiate a new conflict or ofend to anybody my polity here is live for learn to play im a game analizer and i found a very interising game in reversi, here are some link to know something more about reversi.
ED, Reversi or Othello has to many history and variants and was invented before you and me was born and there is a lot of great players in all the world,and they have an International federation that deserves respect after all.

If you scroll way to the bottom of the first list, which is the list of those who played Chinook, the world's strongest checker program for years, on its most difficult setting, you will see...

I was the fifth person to defeat Chinook, back in October of 1996. Just to remind everyone,in 1996 there did not exist any program that was nearly as strong as Chinook. This was a time when 100 MHz computers were top of the line, and hard drives were typically half a gig in size.
I beat one of the strongest checker programs of all time, and I was in the company of some truly great players.
I don't need a computer program to assist me to play. I beat the best of the best.
Now look at the "explosion' of names on the list in later years as programs and hardware advances made them more formidable.
Funny how so few had victories in 1996 when I played, but there were many more in later years.
Whats more amazing is that I can still post here LMAO
I still got more spaces to fill in my Reversi Tournys, please sign up.
Be good if the Gothster could join in, cos I dont think hes got a programme to win with :o)
It looks like gooner KM and ronco have both shell shocked Pedro Martínez with two quick wins in the Aragon's Checkered Past tournament. And SunFire KM gets a quick point against higher rated Aragon in section 2. Still no points on the board in section 1 at this early stage.
Yes, it’s a great fellowship and it’s filling up fast. Pretty soon this old place will probably be pretty quiet so get over here quick. Lots of tournament talking without the buncombe.

When it was first posed as a question, I do not think anyone knew what was the exact cause. It had not been observed previously.
But when messages are hidden, the counter increments external to the board, but the messages will not appear.
We all know this now, and nobody, myself included, was aware of this yesterday. I thought maybe a poster deleted the posts and that could account for the discrepancy.
