1 Preface and User Definitions

Dear Reader,

Thank you for purchasing Rebel Century! You have become a member of an ever growing group of people from all over the world using a Rebel program. Although we do not pretend our program is perfect, we still believe you'll enjoy many hours of pleasure with Rebel. In comparison with its predecessor Rebel 10.0, not only has Rebel become stronger again but we also extended its useful options.

As you will very well understand, nowadays this cannot be done anymore by one person. Therefore we'd like to introduce a few people of the Rebel team:

First of all of course ED SCHRÖDER, the author of the chess engine and original creator of the Rebel programs. With his own style of programming (some people consider Rebel to play the most human-like of all programs) he achieved many national and international successes, including some world titles. Remember it is especially his intelligent skill of combining chess knowledge and programming that will make Rebel a very tough adversary for you!

Besides ED, every year it is again a challenge for ROBERT KEMPER (user interface and communication software) and JEROEN NOOMEN (opening theory) to improve the Rebel product. Also GERDA CROESE (administration and order supply) made the release of this product possible.

MANFRED ROSENBOOM also made an important contribution by supplying us with useful utilities and by supporting our FAQ (= Frequently Asked Questions) on the Internet. If you have a question, just look a moment in Rebel-FAQ on our homepage

http://www.rebel.nl/

before you ring your dealer!

JAN WILLEM SCHOONHOVEN will answer all your remaining questions by email in case the Rebel-FAQ does not supply you what you are looking for. Jan Willem (by email) can be reached at: info@rebel.nl

WYBE KOOPMANS created a top quality database of 300,000 chess games. Also WYBE is responsible for all the newest games (our quick-service) from the Rebel subscription area on the Rebel Home Page.

And where would we be without our BETA-TESTERS team: their input was extremely important!

We would also like to mention JEFF LAHUE who was also a great help on correcting some of our English texts. Thanks Jeff!

Finally we hope that you will also consider yourself as a part of the Rebel-TEAM: please let us know your ideas for improvement!

We hope you'll enjoy Rebel!

The Rebel team from Schröder BV.
