It would be nice if Queen Alice had a endgame database to us to consult (like Nalimov 5-men, or even 6-men if memory is not a problem).

Thanks!

I dont agree. Endings should be played without external help. Many games are dicided in the ending.

Hi dear Majnu,

I see your point, thanks.

I was reading the "ABOUT" of this site, at:

http://www.queenalice.com/about.php

And there it says:

You cannot use a computer or computer program to evaluate or analyze a game. However, you may use computers for record keeping. It is also allowed to consult chess books and opening databases.

So, it says nothing about using endgame database... Only explicity allow chess books and opening databases.

Miguel, what it the position of Queen Alice in this subject?

Thanks!
Beco.
