Update

I just thought of putting up some stuff, so:

Finished proposal last Sunday, 20th July. (OMBWTFBBQ). Took a bit of Thursday, Friday night, most of Saturday and some of Sunday. Blame me.... everything except lit review was done by Friday night, then i tried to go and understand the computer algorithms, all those heuristics stuff.... at least now i got idea what is alpha-beta, history heuristics and killer move, but still don't understand transposition tables, zobrist keys.

I only get to play occasionally, and my current streak is Arimaazilla +2, Loc2005P2 +3, Loc2006P2 +1. Beat Loc2005P2 twice in the library this afternoon 24 July. I still need to improve in the opening and defending. I also often miss forced goals and blunder a lot (currently, this level bots are still weak enough so i still can do last-ditch rescues).

I do not know how Kenneth is doing, i presume he is learning matlab and python for a start.

UPDATE: I crossed the 1700 rating mark. Current record: Loc2005P2 +4, Loc2006P2 +5. Was on 9-game winning streak until blundered and lost to Aamira2006P2....
