Tinker was playing anyone >1900 part of last week and the last couple of days
anyone rating>myrating-400 which is more usual.  Three wins and a draw hurts
ratings.  Some still have !computer or other selective formulas.

More importantly, my mobility eval terms seem to help at blitz but for some
reason hurt at standard time controls.  I also added egtb's which have resulted
in a few more draws and outright wins, but also a couple of losses (due to
premature resigning, which I have yet to fix).

I think everyone is incrementally improving somewhat and the competitive field
is tougher than it was a few months ago.
