If Saitek does not send SSDF one for testing (their decision) and SSDF does not test it due to cost, then the SSDF ratings are just not so credible. In order to maintain credibility, SSDF should use the internet and take certified statements from the individuals who operate the Diamond and let that be it. Other owners could later verify the moves and validate the data. The SSDF is not the only ones capable of playing valid rated chess games between two computers. It all comes down to a question of credibility.
