Here are the positions that the tested engines found the toughest *on average*.
I guess that it would be these positions' solutions of which you are doubtful
(though you don't give details).
The solutions originally received an exclamation mark from some GM or other, and
then I successfully tested each of them with several strong engines at very long
time limits. They could easily still be all wrong of course. And I would be
genuinely pleased to see evidence of any that are, since that would result in an
improved second version of the test.
