Every programmer who has tested against junior 7 reported the same at wmcc: they kicked its butt. Now junior wins world title by a huge difference in points. 8 out of 9 is not nothing. IMHO winning a world champion can't be explained by the tossing a coin lemma from Christophe. That's BS i think. It's true that they swindled a lot, but swindling is also a cool thing to do. Getting from -5.x back to +5.x is definitely an achievement. But you do not seem to want to read what i wrote. What i wrote is: everyone is kicking junior7 like it's a peanut. How can this be?
