I have not Junior6 and Fritz6 but other people have and they can check the
games.

The problem is that the result seems illogical  based on all the previous
results of Junior6 and Junior5 that I know.

It seems that there is something wrong in the results and it is a bad idea to
post results like this without data of games(The result of Junior5 against
Junior6 proves with more than 99% security that Junior5 is better than Junior6
when normal result show that Junior6 is better than Junior5 except maybe very
fast games when Junior6a lose often on time but these very fast games are not
relevant here because the poster posted time control of 1 hour/game and not 1
minute/game).

I do not say that the posters are liars but I am sure that the first thought of
many people when they read posts that Junior5 is clearly better than Junior6
without data about the games is that the posters are liars.

This is the reason that it is a bad idea to post information like this without
data.

If people post the games with evaluations of the programs other people can check
if there is a problem(If Junior6 is slowed down by a significant factor or if
Junior6 does not play in the default setting).
