I don't understand, why some people have problems with this sort of a match. Just don't read it as "MCP8 played on stronger hardware against Comet32 on much weaker hardware which is unfair!" but instead read it as "MCP8, expected rating about 2500+ played against a player rated 2202." Just like in real life. And you can see, that MCP8 couldn't win much points in this match, but that there was a high risk to lose many points against a much weaker opponent. >Also, I don't >understand that particular timing nomenclature.
