My question was why it >should be better to play matches against Chessmaster4000 or Genius 1 instead of >Comet and Yace, That's probably because we have a SSDF-rating for these. So Jorge probably thinks, it's possible to derive a more reliable rating for Palm-Tiger if he plays these two. Nevertheless, I appreciate testing some amteurs here.
