I test many programs and i use many setting on them. Rebel may have been
set on far form its stongest setting in this game. Don't remember what I
had rebel set on. I would not put a rating down for rebel under my
account as you did 2743. Remember I test many setting and programs. so i
could jump up to well over 2800 or drop down to 2600.
