If you wonder why I make this point about "no presents", look back at what happened to Don Dailey when Komodo did a similar claim in the last CCT. Some well known posters from here attacked him for that.
It would have made you look like a really nice guy

I wanted to have some informations on the following accounts.
Thinker is the wellknown free engine. Isn't it? Or is it just a pseudo of another commercial?
Buzz, is rated almost as strong as Current Rybka cluster. What engine is it?

Regards,
Gaмßito.
getting 3 draws with black against players with higher rating and winning the rest of the games is an excellent result for the cluster.

I do not expect chess to be solved in the strong meaning that means proving that chess is a draw but I believe that solving chess in the practical meaning that means that we get always or almost always draw in comp-comp games from the opening position is possible.
It may be interesting to know the percentage of draws in comp-comp correspondence games today(let say stockfish against rybka) and find the value of hardware advantage of 10:1(I am sure that it is smaller than tournament time control games)
