Games a lightning time doesnt prove anything. How could I conclude that a program is better than others in 2 minutes. I am using a medium time control 40 minutes in 40 minutes. Tell me how can I conlude with such time? I think that I cannot ship your idea with such time. Regrettably, as a Book Creator, this kind of test doesnt say me any conclusive thing. Good, intuition is not enough. I rely on the Dann Corbit primary result. It is real and not a lightninh games that it is lottery.
