Move 19b poll: Everyone vs. Stockfish

MooMoo2 · 2016-07-23, 16:56

Here's the poll for move 19, game 2. The poll closes in 3 days, and the discussion can be found at: http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=20926

I think we need more time for this move. I personally got confused when you said you'd put a poll up in 4-5 days even though you did what you said you would do. After 4-5 days, I thought we would then have 3 days to think about the move before a poll would be posted. For that reason I don't feel like there was enough discussion about the move before the poll was posted.

I agree with Mr. Barnes. I need more time to consider this position, please.

No problem. I can't change the poll's closing date, but I'll count votes made 3 days (72 hours) after this poll closes. Just post your vote on this thread.

If you voted already, you may change your vote until the new deadline.

Well, I think Mike can change the date, if he tries hard

I would remind you that I used SF in the past to look into the other game, therefore I stopped playing it, that was a big mistake because all the fun was gone after I looked into the game with SF... Now I already forgot the "tips" from the program and would like to play again, but of course you are free refuse my participation, I may continue to kibitz for some particular moves.

So, if you accept me in the game, I would also need more time to look into this position, currently my preference goes with Qf2. Gary's Rfe1 is the best move if we play for a draw, but after about 15 minutes look last night, I am not convinced that we need to play for a draw from this position. Winning attitude comrades!

This game will quickly be entirely different from the other one. I see no conflict of interest in having you play this game.

It seems I missed the cutoff date. After looking over 19.Rfe1 I feel this is the best move.

So, if I vote now 19.Qf2, we have a triple tie? hehe...
Ok, I vote for 19.Qf2

gd_barnes · 2016-07-28, 07:26

So...we now have a triple tie. This should be interesting.

If the tie remains, someone will have to consider changing their vote.

This was posted in the discussion thread by richs (after the game restarted). Since he hasn't officially voted in *this* thread, it ought to be considered, unless explicitly overridden in this thread.

EDIT:- But we have until another 30 hrs or so (I hope I did the math correct) for other people to cast their votes.
