Diep did a good CCT4 Tournament. Yes, the result is considering a 5th place
between forty six programs and Quark reached an impressive forth place: Quark
beated Shredder too. Quark is a good and tested Program, so I am not surprise
that can get a good result in this Tournament.

Paderborn is shor Tournament, so anything can happen: a bad opening line, a
positional bug in the evaluation, reaching a position not understood by the
program cause a big 0.

Fritz has a tested and terrific opening Book. Shredder and Gandalf are good
programs. But, it doesn't mean that they can loose.

Good, that is a supposition, only a supposition that are not based on real
facts. Tell me, if you have tested the last Quark Versions so you can say that
Quark cannot better than SOS o viceversa.

Similar? How many game have you run to say that? The same thing applies to Diep.
