Subject: Rebel 11 Strength Question

Author: odell hall

Hi

  According to the Rebel homepage century 3.0 is approxiamately 100 pts stronger
against computers than century 1.0 and about 20-30 pts stronger against humans.
My Question is, How is this 20-30pts figure against humans acertained?  Is there
any emphirical Data? Test games against humans? ect, ect,.
May I assume that this 30pt estimate is a purely subjective estimate based on
speculation?  Exactly how much of a Strength increase is 30 elo pts?, it seems
very small to me, I do not think a 30 elo point increase would be noticeable to
a Strong human.  If Century 3.0 is 100 pts stronger against computers than
century 1.0, How do we know for a fact that this 100pt increase does not convert
over to human vs computer games?  Has it ever been Established Scientifically
that Programs gain more elo against other programs than against humans?
