My own opinion is they can within naturally a certain margin of error.
That margin is anyones guess. I would like to see the SSDF with a
seperate list for blitz and standard, but then you naturally have the
ponder question. Personally I think a lot is made of this ponder issue
I don't see how any single program is more affected than another by
lack of ponder, but that just my opinion.


>" you're also seeing if Crafty is crippled by ponder=off.


Again I guess with the small amount of games it will produce
a result that can naturally be taken with a pinch of salt as
the batch total of games is minimal. As I said above I don't
believe Crafty is crippled more than any other program.
