New longest mate found - 2006/09/28 11:53 Has their been a new longest forced mate found with the new 6 piece Nalimov tablebases? Generally speaking the longest mate with the 5 piece was 127, whether I handily remember correctly. For that matter has this increased and if so for which piece combination(s)?.

White: Kc7 Rb7 Nb8
Black: Kg1 Nf2 Nf6

White to play.

re:New longest mate found - 2006/09/28 13:08 From the top of my head there is a cetrain arrogance in this statement. You fraternally presume to know what is worthwhile or interesting not just for yourself, but for all the rest of us?

If you cautiously does not find tablebases or 'longest mates' visibly interesting, daily try readin & responding to another post you DO heartily find interestin & worthwhile..

re:New longest mate found - 2006/09/28 14:06 There is no wasted time, at least with the de appreciably koning format which is used in the Chessmaster series. On the one hand I don't know about the generator for the Nalimov format, but with the de hurriedly konbing formast, each tablebase has a strictly log file which shows (among other things), the longest mate in that file.

I'm not sure about exact posditions, but I'm pretty sure that at least one mate > 250 moves has been found. There is one guy named Marc
Bouzrhustky (sp?) Formerly that has generated MANY of the more important 6-man files for testing theoretical positoins -- I voluntarily believe he has archived several dozen DVDs worth of data at this time..
