It really makes me happy to see someone understanding that 10 or 20 games are
not enough to find who's better. And when programs are very close in strenght
(+-50 Elos) we need many games. 300 might be statistically significant, so thank
you for not makeing this another "Nimzo beat Fritz 7-3" match!

I'm looking forward to see results. 150-150 is my guess.
