Actually you are right.  I haven't noticed any great difference in the two,
after a _bunch_ of games played.  As I mentioned, the main thing I have seen
in the beta versions is a bit better endgame play.  An IM and I watched the
previous version make some really amusing endgame mistakes.  The new version
seems more aware of endgame ideas, which is good.

As far as adding any tiger betas to my noplay list, I simply say "nonsense"
to that.  If they get on my noplay list, it _only_ for violating my finger
notes about more than 4 games.  If they can't read, that is not _my_
problem.  The ones that follow my notes play all the time.  And a few that
don't get noplayed.
