From: Larry Kaufman comcast net> Date: 27 mar 2007 Subject: Re: [shogi] RE: Watanabe's comments (2) Most Shoreikai 2 Dan players would be far below 2800 on sc 24, but remember that sc 24 ratings are basically 30'' per move. In other words, Habu is saying that Bonanza (on the octal computer) plays like a Shoreikai 2 Dan in a 2 hour per side game; in 30" per move shogi it would clobber most Shoreikai 2 Dan players.
