Thanks.
My testing shows Tiger13 better than Gambit Tiger against Crafty.
My testing also shows that their scores against Crafty improve with
slower time controls, and your data here support that. I have
Tiger13 +13 -6 =14 against Crafty 18.1 on a PII-300 at 5 3, and other
results.

I think that with larger sample sizes, it could be proven that the Tigers
are relatively better against Crafty with slower time controls, or equivalently,
on faster hardware.
Christophe Theron "himself" doesn't believe this has ever been proven.

Here's one quick experiment: On your 200Mhz machine, at a time control of
5 3 or faster, Gambit Tiger might lose to Crafty. It scored +12 -12 =7 on
mine.
