Yes, SOS is very strong, this is clear !
The sensation is that in the same tourney an amateur program is on 1 and a
professional program on 16. I think the chance to get this constellation is
maybe 1% !!

But all is possible.

The same tourneys (20 AP tourneys) with 40 in 120 moves = 3 years on one
machine. My CCE tourney is work enough and running now 14 months.

I need 8 machines to play a good tourney with a lot of programs with longer time
controls.

Please thinking ... we have a nice marketing situation if an amateur program win
the WM :-)))
