Game 845365
All of us vs the big bad Fritz.
Here how it should work (In theory)
RHP members suggest candidate moves, debate variations etc afer a set period of time the moves are then listed. People then recommend the move that they want to choose the played RHP'ers move, the top move is the one that No1 will play.
We'll probably come across some bumps in the path but im sure we'll be able to work them out.
One thing that shouldnt be used or posted is peoples own fritz analysis. It would take all the fun out of the game.
Id suggest say two days of debate about the opening move and then two days of voting, does that sound sensible? Nothing is really set in stone, if most people want a longer move time then we'll take longer move times etc.
Lets kick some computer butt :-)

:-) It would be nice for a reason after moves.
ie d4. computers can not play positional games as well as the tactical openings offered by e4.
What opening would you want to play with e4 ?
I too think the opening should be closed, fritz will just slap us about in tactics/forced variations. We need something that fritz cant turn tactical, where we can get a long term positional advantage.
Originally posted by KWCoronaThats up to how people feel but lets try about 2-3 days from now. Say aiming for 12:01 (am) GMT 23/12/04 then someone lists the moves and then they are rec'ed for a day. I dont think we should keep it to the minute, but just a general idea.
How long are we going to take suggestions per move??
One question is who should list the moves to be rec'ed. I think Tony should, (if hes willing 🙂 ) hes the mod of the chess forum and clearly hasnt got any intrest in getting undue recs unlike some rec happy people. The recs are only a primitive voting system.
Originally posted by tmetzlerOsse posted a link a while back that showed a system for beating fritz using b4. Theres also a bit of theory about getting the engine to place its peices on the queenside and then going for a kingside attack. Its that sort of long term plan that might give us our best chances.
Hey, you aren't supposed to say his name anymore! Not fair.
Anyways...I'm going to have to vote for e4, just because it is the first opening I ever learned...
Id go for d4/c4. Leaning more towards c4.
I think e4 is just begging for fritz to the game open.
I go with 1. e4. There are plenty of closed ways to play things in e4. If it plays 1...e5 we can go with 2. Bc4, maybe getting it out of it's book earlier, which is solid. Or if it plays 1..c5 played The Closed Sicilian! Anything else should be ok, and shouldn't get too crazy if we don't want it to!

I would suggest my pet opening f4, but the collective knowledge among RHP'ers on this system is probably quite a bit lower than the others, not to mention exposing our King so early, is probably just asking for Fritz to hurt us.
c3, I like that idea, just because it is something I've been thinking about giving a try for awhile and would like the opportunity to read the thought process of some of the better players on the site.
