  The center vortex model, capable of explaining confinement and chiral
symmetry breaking, has been plagued by the lattice equivalent of Gribov copies:
different maxima of the gauge functional lead to different predictions of the
string tension. It is possible to resolve this problem using center regions,
loops evaluating to center elements, as guide for the gauge fixing procedure.
The success of this approach was already shown, but the algorithms came with an
arbitrary free parameter. In recent development this parameter has been fixed,
even improving the results.
