"Tough" is stretching it more than a bit. While it is playing much faster than it used to, it is still nowhere near the claimed times, typically being 1.5 to 2 times the maximum stated. It exceeds the time limit even by the clock on the page, which runs 10% to 50% slower than real time. > Play with Normal level for big Challenges. The only challenge is staying awake. It took more than 4 minutes, at Normal level, to make the first move, and is currently ay 8 minutes for move 2... 10 minutes, now, though the clock claims only 368 seconds.  SignatureChris F.A.

For the first nine moves, the game has not taken less than 4 minutes for a move, and all except 3 moves have taken more than 10 minutes. Even if it were making outstanding moves, that would be too long for a reasonable game. As it is, the moves are a joke. Look at the start of the game: 1. f4 d5 { 4:00+ } 2. e3 Be6 { 14:00+ } 3. b3 Qd7 { 6:00+ } 4. Bb2 a5 { 14:05 (claiming 622 secs.) } It is now at 18 minutes for its 9th move... it moved at 19:30. Beginner and Easy levels are now playing at a decent speed, even though not at the speed claimed, but they cannot be called strong by any other than a rank beginner. SignatureChris F.A.
