Firstly, thanks for running these matches.

Why not get an idea of endgame strength while using TBs?  I can't say for sure,
but if I was a program author (I'm not), I may try to improve the endgame play
while assuming that a certain set of TBs will be present (e.g. all 4 man).
Maybe this is a poor assumption, but I think that programmers may not be able to
optimise their engines for both cases (time/effort involved).  And I think most
serious users will use TBs.  Just a thought.
