I suspected something was wrong due to hardware/applicaitions setup and i also suspected whatever was wrong (if anything) to favor ikarus, this is just a hunch not an attempt to make the result fit my expectations!! If i had more cpu's i would run 200 games!! but with only 2 comps available 24/7 it is impossible! It would be unfair to Goliath (and i am not biased towards any engines i test) if it had such a bad result due to my or my comps incompetence, therefore i chose to do the match allover again from scratch. Remember i do this in my free time for free...... Regards Jonas
