the list are no live events. in lists, played out somewhere, cheating and
manipulation cannot be controlled.
Such a "method" to test playing strength is not scientific.

a live event cannot be manipulated. all other programmers or teams
are there to follow and can complain instantly.
there chessbase cannot win, although they have 4-6 times higher chances
due to several engines they start with.
reason ?

i can tell you the reason. it's live.
if the chessbase programs playing in the ssdf list would be that strong,
they would have won in those 3 years, wouldn't they ?
they are stronger, they start with 6 teams at all, with big machines , so big
that nobody can carry them, and they still do not win ?

and you believe this is by beeing unlucky ?

enrique, the world is not working the way you want to suggest.
god is not unfair that much.
if they do not win for years, they are not better, they are worse.

you know how those lists are beeing generated.

>Poor thing #2. Right, with enemies like these who needs friends...

friend is a word i can spell for you. maybe you would learn how to write
it in the connotational meaning, my dear friend enrique :-)

>Mine must be excellent. Programmers involved must have an excellent one too...

programmers need money. from time to time. there are others. who don't need
money. and those programmers are not afraid of the borg.
but even the ones beeing afraid do speak out freely when the borg are in a
different room.
