Are you sure you used Gothmog 0.4.5 and not some earlier version, then? Version 0.4.5 was released yesterday, and you cannot have had much time to play with it. Of course this does not really make your match result invalid from the point of view of our bet, because 0.4.5 is apparently very much stronger than 0.4.3. >I had intended to play 80 Blitz games (2x40 games). >Now the computers played 100 games (40+60). >I will post more informations later when back at home. > >IIRC the result was 59,5:40,5 in favour of Crafty 19.06. >Thats a rating difference of about 70 points for this match. > >According to this Blitz-Ratinglist Gothmog 0.4.5 might be even stronger in >Blitz: > >http://www.uciengines.de/Tournaments/UCIBlitz/Ratinglist/ratinglist.html > >68 points difference between Crafty 19.06 and Gothmog 0.4.3. Yes, but Gothmog 0.4.3 was incredibly lucky in that tournament. It scored 50% against Fritz 8, Shredder 7.04, Pepito 1.59, Gandalf 4.32, Ruffian 1.05 and Rebel 12.00.01. Yeah, right. I would be very surprised if Gothmog 0.4.5 is able to improve upon version 0.4.3's results in this tournament, even though I know that the new version is clearly stronger. Tord
