MT***By 'algorithmatization', do you mean finding an algorithm by which a
player can be certain not to lose? That's a good question.***

Vit: No, I mean ability for PC playing... But the question is really good
:-).


MT*** I thought at first it was obvious that no such algorithm could be
found, since Synchronous Chess is not a perfect-information game, but as I
think about it a second time, I realize it's not so obvious. But I think
it's unlikely there could be such an algorithm. Luck is a factor.***

VK. Yes: luck or telepathy  ļ.
