problem 34976

Hi,

Do you think 1. exd4 should be approved ? it is a good idea forking queen and bishop next move.

That kind of move is easy to find for human as attacker of queen is removed and no need to make queen desperado move. the evaluation is still clearly winning and maybe -1 less than the best move.

As you are developing the site you could have a sort of exception list of problems where you could override computer evaluation. then you would collect a database of computer generated problems and additionally human approved exceptions to make to problem base as good as possible.

1. exN QxR 2.dxe5 Bxe5  I guess white gets 2 pieces for the rook.  It's much better to get a whole piece for nothing.

Hi argentum,

I do plan to add the capability to accept human suggested alternatives at some point.  At the moment the idea is to allow users to enter (on a board) their idea of a better line and then have users vote on suggested lines.  If enough users vote for an alternative then the alternative would become the new "main" line. This is still a while off though.

Regards,
Richard.
