of course i believe in your results.
i have not a single reason not to believe.

that is the very exciting competition these days...

i have no clear idea in this area.
2700 sounds VERY high for my ears. on the other hand: junior, fritz and
p.conners have proven to score in this region. so at the end i should throw away
my scepsis and agree to you.

don´t care too much about that. i think the top 3 are very close. even if
shredder has problems with gambit tiger, he will score better against another
opponent.
