No offense Kurt, but I have not seen any published games by you from
official arbitrated events at 40/2 that would support this claim.  :)

If you can set up an event with a recognized arbitrator against
the program/designated operator (the programmer can decide who is
qualified), then the results would hold.

Again, no offense, but I could easily post hundreds of pgn's here that
I claim were losses by some program when in reality I get get killed most
of the time.  I need something more solid to believe this claim.  :)
