Don't be so impatient.
We will play more games.

>Not quite. 19 games are not statistically as valid as 19. And ratings

I have only posted my CSTal games so far enrique. I have many other
opponent games too.
I first have to collect them because they are all in different databases
on different machines.

Be patient.
The number of games will increase.


>As for "cheating", who is cheating?

Look into the ICCA journal, page 70.
The Fritz5 ELO is in brackets.

It looks I am not the only person on this world who believes the results
are somehow strange.

The autoplayer is not publically available.
The executable is not publically available.
The system is not confirmed by the other programmers who have supported
ssdf-guys over the years e.g. by sending free-units of software.

The ssdf-guys have to delete the CB-autoplayer games. Otherwise they
lose all credibility and the support of all other programmers.

No programmer will send a free-version or even allows his program to be
tested against Fritz is the system is not open and publically available
like the
austrian autoplayer by Chrilly Donninger.

You cannot win this battle Enrique.

The decision to accept this autoplayer was a step over the edge !
Only NOT counting the games is a change to come back to normal values.

How can you defend that this autoplayer is a hidden device. That is
NOT SCIENTIFIC.
The results are not counting as long as they use this device.

In the moment they use the normal auto232 autoplayer device and Fritz is
still rank No.1 all the trouble is away.

IF  !

But still than you have to explain me why Cstal is number one too. :-)

(and why all other unfamous opponents kill fritz5 easily).
