I use it; I love it; but, I'm not sure how current it is. :-)
Thx! :-)
I'm very happy when my opponents follows its advices blindly. 100% win with only three games vs 60% win with 100 games behind. Well, 100% is better than 60% isn't it?
Well used it's a gold mind, badly used it's a pit of dirt.

What is the point of the Games Explorer? And why doesn't the little hand appear when you hover over it?
This is a form of data. It helps you decide what may be a good move if there is data recorded on any given move. It is basically for opening play, because once you leave opening theory, chances are you will not find a given position in the explorer.

over on the right you will see a list of possible moves, you can click one and it will tell you chances of either color winning or drawing... and a list of games where the move was played at RHP.
Toy with it, you can't break it.
Example:
http://www.timeforchess.com/gamesexplorer/index.php?movelist=e2e4g8f6b1c3e7e6&flip=0&co=-&u=-1&c=1400
There were about 28 games played using this opening. The moves didn't necessarily need to be in the same order, they got to the same position however and that's what's important.

Cheers - when updated this feature will be a definate asset.
Do you have a cut off mark ie up to move 10 for example or
will you show all the Fool's and Scholar Mates. Also does it exclude
doublers? (there are a few guys on here who have fallen for
the same trap using the exact same move order v different opponets).
A direct link to it would be useful. Thanks Again.
