Who them or me? I did, and the evidence ways highly for Frit7 not CM8K.

I suggest following the tournaments posted here as well...CM8K got it's @ss
kicked by F7 ver. 7.0.0.6, or were you not paying attention?

Also the SSDF bases their work on statistical numbers that _are_ significant.

Have a problem, write them!
