Anyone who has played and beaten the Chinook computer has to be distressed that the Wall of Honor hasn't been updated in over 18 months. So many of us are still waiting for our plaques. Does this keep you up at nights? LOL. Still it's irksome.

Chinook has a webpage where their computer checker program offers games against the public. They have it set for 3 levels of difficulty. It is EXTREMELY hard to beat. The URL to play it is on this DB several posts back but I will look it up and post it here again. Chinook was one of the original checker programs and has a perfect 8 piece endgame database knowledge. I played it nearly 100 times to get 2 wins and about 8 or 9 draws.
