hi, i'm writng this because my chess knowledge is not the best. Also im not a skilled player. but just to see what a good opponent was like i played the computer on hard (~2000). i started playing and the computer returned moves in quick succession. however as soon as i got to the 5th move it wouldnt take its turn. it said "computer thinking" but it said it for 20 minutes. i decided that i had wasted enough time. the game is underneeath.  why do you think it wouldnt take another move. my internet was working, i had other tabs open. was it just a programming error or coulf the computer not think of a return. please tell me what you think.

I dont know which program are u using but there must be a max tinking time setting or you can just start a 15 min game vs computer and then he will play faster.

Interesting report by you.  Perhaps the computer was wrestling with the geography viz CARDIFF  U.K.

Wondering if Cardiff,s country is the United Kingdom!!!!

I feel obliged to offer you a game as Cardiff is the City of my birth nearly 80 years' since.

I doubt though that you will learn much about chess moves from me, but maybe we'll enjoy the match.

Maybe, like the computer's decision, you are still THINKING about my offer to play a match.  If you want a game, just challenge me.
