Hi Vincent,

You're absolutely right that I can get far deeper using nullmove. 
Unfortunately however, as I mentioned here before, for reasons I do not 
yet fully understand nullmove did not increase the playing strength.
The speed was in the order of Mnps, and the evaluation was of course 
quite stupid. However, I should point out that these numbers are for an 
ancient version of Magog which has very little in common with the 
current version which is at least 5 times slower in nps.
