What is the definition of an "established" rating?

I haven't changed my variables from the default 2 12.  Does it matter at all
as long as I don't use "search" without any parameters?

So far, my program doesn't support time controls with increments.  That is
the explanation of the "inc=0" in my formula.  This will probably change
soon.

Thanks!  I just played four bullet games.  Not surprisingly, Tinker crushed
GothmogX in all four games.  Tinker seems to be quite good at bullet games,
while my program is too slow to play well at bullet.

I wish you good luck with Tinker, too!

Thanks for the advice!
