Hi Graham
It was in no way my intention to be a spoilsport. I just wanted to explain from
my own and long experience [I have played thousand of games with
CM8-personalities] that it would be the better way to find out about the real
strenght of a CM8-personality when fighting other programs. And furthermore I
wanted to know if the so far unknown CM 8999-setting had been playing other
programs so that it would be worth to test this setting myself. The testing of
one setting with at least 150-300 games at level 40'/40 is a very time consuming
matter.
