HalfPawn: As far as I know I am no longer welcomed at gothicchesslive. During the last big GC event there end of 2005 there have been difficulties to rebuild broken games, if both players would not sufficiently cooperate. I preferred to resign then instead to play endless kindergarden games. My attempt to make a proposal how to fairly handle such unlikely situations had been ignored. Instead I have been called someone, who would leave tournaments, if it would not go his way. The truth is, that any victory or loss is losing any worth, if not gained fairly. That is also the reason, why I have resigned some games here at brainking, even though mostly having advantage.

My SMIRF has been available unrestrictedly until end of March. Everybody was able to test and compare it with his own program. That has not been possible for me. No actual 2006 version of ChessV or Gothic Vortex could be used by me for testing purposes. This is showing to everybody, where the fear is residing.
