Not to mention, but it was the same old version as last year with a minor
improvement on the Opening Book. This is why a match of only 9 games instead of
double round robin of 18 games doesn't impress me at all. Any of the engines
that ended in the 1st to 8th position can win next year without any major
improvement, it is just a matter of luck.
