It seems (to me) to play fine.  Most "this version sucks" comments come after
losing 3 games in a row to some program.  If someone would just look at the
long-term data a little more closely, losing 3 in a row is _normal_.  With
enough games, losing 10 in a row is normal.

But too many judgements are based on data that is not just too small a sample,
they are based on _way_ too small a sample of games...
