Sort:

I am extremely frustrated. I have been playing for awhile mostly against the computer, and worked up to winning most games against the intermediate bots. Suddenly I cannot beat even th elowest level bot- I have lost about 30 games over the past week. even the Adaptive bot beats me. The bots never seem to make errors anymore either they've been playing almost perfect games. Does anyone have any advice on how to get out of a rut like this?

It's not you it's the bots. For some reason they're playing better. I don't know if it's all of them, but there were a couple of other posts about Martin so I had couple games against him and he's definitely playing stronger than 250.

This is where it starts.

You arw too distracted, Martin is very easy :P, joking. It happened same with me, I defeated the 1300 computer, I started losing and start reducing level, now I lose to Martin. In 28 moves, he did 17 best moves plus 2 book moves, definitely not easy one, before even the 1000 computer was very easy.

I'am in the same situación with the bots and it is very frustrating. I have thought that my head was very stressed

Me too. I cant beat the lowest beginner level, even though i was playing the 1000 level until a few days ago.  I am very frustrated.  Its not fun anymore.

Whew I'm glad it's not just me. I can't even beat Martin anymore and was wondering what the heck was going on with me.

Martin's behaviour must be inconsistent. I just played him and accidentally stalemated him while going for my fourth queen.

I uninstalled, and re-installed.  Version 4.2.6 has a bug. I re-installed the BETA version and all is well!

Thanks lucy, I just did the same and can confirm it's working better now!
