most elo-ratings were taken from ssdf-list. a few are just guessing
because the programs had no rating when the tournament began.

the program will generate new ratings when the tournament has
come into a few rounds.

so the ratings in the beginning are not that precise, and more important
for the pairings in the first rounds. later the pairings get decided due to the
amount of points the programs have won, and less due to the ratings.


nevertheless the ratings taken from the ssdf list have a base of many outplayed
games, on nearly the same cpu, and the same time-control. so the ratings
for those programs should be very accurate.
