Hi all,

a friend of mine pointed out that my article is being discussed in this forum. I am sorry for choosing a suboptimal title and I hope that it is unambiguous now. I am grateful for your feedback and kind words!

If you have any questions, also in regard to proving similar chess facts, I'd be happy to help ^^

Best regards, Tobi

so just to be clear: for every board position there are no more than 218 moves available? is that the understanding?

It's your turn and you have 218 moves to choose from. This is the best possible and the article proves this (assuming no bugs in machine or mind).
