What? It depends on much much more! It depends on what kind of knowledge and
programming is most effective in the given positions of that particular game
being played.
It's a very slippery proccess.
I think the testing should be done completely differently, to be more effective
with less games.
Each game should be directed so that all types of positions are tested and
assesed, as well as all time controls.
Then there should be an overall rating, as well as individual ratings for singal
aspects and strengths etc. (which are then generalized in the overall rating
i.e. acc. to average).
