Greetings all,
A. I am a beginning/intermediate player and I've started using SCID
to track my games. I like to use the blunder check capability
but I'm a little confused about how it works. One thing I want
it to check for is missed opportunities for mate. I've been
working with one particular game where there is a mate in three
opportunity on move 34, which I missed. I'd like the blunder
check to point this out, but it doesn't. If I leave the engine
running (infinite analysis) and click on the move just before
34, it instantly finds it - but while annotating, it doesn't.Some details: 1. PGN attached - the mate in three I'm trying to catch starts on move 34 with 34.Nxf6 2. I'm using Stockfish 191 as the engine (although I've tried a few others with the same result) 3. Initially I was using 5 seconds per move as the annotate setting, but I've also tried 60 seconds per move - which didn't help. I'm wondering if it has an issue dealing with the relative "score" of mate versus some high numeric value or something? Thoughts anyone or any idea why this isn't working or what I might be doing wrong? Thanks, -Matt
