Does Chessmaster gets stronger when given more time?
OK, I have been wondering about this for awhile. During rank play with Chessmaster, does it get stronger when given 1 hour of play than giving it, lets say, 10 minutes to complete all its move?
Thanks!

Generally speaking, that's correct. Restricting/Increasing the time a personality has will affect the quality of the moves it makes.
However, this isn't always the case, as each personality has a base rating, and is programmed with certain behaviors. Also, it matters less as the game progresses, since with each move, the number of available moves decreases.
All this said, it's not recommended that you give the computer infinite time... you'll be waiting a long, long, long time for the computer to move.
