Read my answer to Dan's post and you will know why i chose to rerun the match. And by the way 30 games even 200 games would not give an exact result, though the margain of error would probably shrink to a minimum the more matches you run. 10 matches at a time is what i have time for. For the record i am not trying to compare engines, i just simply enjoy a good game of chess, then you be the judge wheter prog a or b is strongest! Regards Jonas
