I understand your concerns and believe me I too would like to see the latest
Tigers fight in the SSDF.

But if they test the unpatched version, this is not going to be fair because at
the time the result is published a patched and improved version will be
available for all users. So it's really better to wait.

Something else I notice: so far, no new program has been able to reach Tiger's
third place and to make it go down to the fourth place.

Wait a little bit, I'm still working on the patch.
