Thnx Tim and Malacia, 734, 795, 1059, 1204 and 1353 will be disabled soon. Especially 1204 is harsh. I actually only missed 8. 2-16, while a lot of transposition lines were put in correctly in the…

Author here. @Jeffrey Congratulations on the draw! Scan probably made mistakes when answering you, however. The version I'm using is slightly different, and plays those moves (even with only…

For some unknown reason Scan doesn't play the right moves. After 7. ... 27-31 ? the position is lost for Black (Dragon Draughts database). Maybe Scan doesn't use endgame database in lidraughts ? Anyw…
