Blog devoted to TransWarp, a computer chess account on chessclub.com, using Deep Rybka 3.0 x64 "Human" Chess Engine. It's a new version Rybka played by many GMs & IMs. Also includes thoughts by me re comp chess and chess in general. My thoughts are my opinion only. As to new Regs by FTC, I have yet to make $0.01 on banner ads and $1.59 on hold in google adsense for google ads. Not sure what to put yet.

Really Late Update...
I'm sorry for the lack of news lately, not that there hasn't been any. Smallville, GM Hikaru Nakamura played some blitz games some days back. He had been taken off my noplay list since Aug 9, 2008, when the new Rybka Engine came out. Also that same day, GM Shakhriyar Mamedyarov (azerichess) had played a few games as well. Recently GM Alexey Dreev and GM Bassem Amin played a few games, with GM Amin even playing some standard! GM Amin also collected a blitz win against TransWarp, one thing about reloading an engine after it crashes in the Chesspartner interface, you have to reset your books and settings sometimes. This was the case when TransWarp played 1....a6?! as a defense. You will see this game below, as well as GM Amin's standard draw. I'm trying to get fired up for Corus! But last week, I tried walking to the store, totally messed me up for some days...only thing I had to look forward to was some new games to look at by TransWarp. So Congrats to GM Bassem Amin for his blitz win and standard draw! I will post the earlier games in another post and the later games in a post after that.
