I think I understand now.
Well! that almost makes me want to cry! (together with an emotional Gambit
Tiger).
GT does not look anything special at all according to these results.
GT 1.0 vs. Junior 6a have 17 games over here.
W5/L5/=7 each. And GT was not able to win a single game as Black, Whereas it
managed to lose two games as white, and Junior 6a lost no games as white.
You might say, "but it's not enough games to indicate very much"!
But I can tell you, that I anyway am always upset to see a program which I
want to get for analysis, and main use, lose even one game, esp. to a previous
generation program, since that indicates some inadequacy somewhere, compared to
something else which is available. I would prefer if they were many draws, even
if only the occasional win. That would look more reliably better. But now, it
looks like in many ways, the old Junior6a is stronger than GT.
