Hola Fernando,

I disagree with you. I also encourage you to think about the following:  if you
were the author of Fritz, would you rather win a 9 round affair such as this
one, or remain steadily number 1 on the SSDF list (where honest testers spend
hours playing out hundreds and hundreds of games)(and place second in WMCCC)?

This is not trying to belittle Shredder's achievement.  Congrats to Shredder and
its author for a great performance.  Will they manage to topple Fritz in the
SSDF list?  We shall see...

***  Djordje
