I can imagine very positive ones ( like simply helping people you think do the right thing ) and negative ones ( like being afraid that actually this conflict is resolved or ignored and a new opponent enters the list where you compete ; or : if all engines are availlable as Chessbase engines life becomes easier as SSDF can simply play a Fritz tournament ) . This is another reason why I think it is best if SSDF is neutral , tests the strongest programs , listen to programmers when they tell how to setup their programs and when there is some problem - and otherwise : simply ignore their comments , sorry . This way we have an independent list judging about the strength of the engines - it does have some limitations as it only answers which one is the strongest if matches are played like SSDF does - but there is nothing else afaik aside from the official championships . If many strong programs are missing the list loses much of its importance . pete
