Else about the rating: I started your test with 5 min + 10sec. And I see my topscore is what I earned on first game. Eg. 2297 because I started with the default setting with rating of 1500. Then my first random opponent was Sam (1439), and because I won the rating was that high. I expect my rating to be ca. 1700 after 20 games, therefore no chance to climb ut to the higscore in the programs lifetime (1-2 year ?). So my question is (as it was when I saw this in CM8000), will this be reset when I get to 20 games. If not I have to think of this as a bug, regardless of you argument about testers also had provinsial rating. But, to be a bit positive, the random opponent function both in the game room and tournament room was a very nice idea. I don't think I have seen it in other program. Odd Gunnar
