However, this >could change at some point in the future. That conclusion is so badly flawed it is almost funny. How can you conclude that when shredder 6 has not played most of the _current_ chess programs? And I'm not talking about the versions that the SSDF has, but the versions that each author is currently working on? No way to make such a statement and have it based on fact. If you want to change it to "S6 is better than any engine the SSDF is testing." then it has a better chance of standing up under scrutiny.
