The fact that Marty or his team has decided to do so is more contra-productive than senseful. With any booked games Mchess-xyz bad-feelings against Mchess were produced. You can say each ssdf-elo-point that is won with this method produces 100 people don't liking this method. I would advise - like Dirk Frickenschmidt has done it - to show a message in Mchess7: "Attention, this is a winning preplayed autoplayer game vs. Hiarcs6. It will end in a win for Mchess7. Do you want to continue the game or start another won game against hiarcs6 ?" And the next step is: all programmers supply their programs with 300 winning games against main-opponents. This way the ssdf-guys would not need to play out their own games. This would spare a lot of time :-)
