There are three differences: 1.) Harald Faber is using the autoplayer and two PC's 2.) Harald Faber is playing with ponder=on 3.) Harald Faber used the kostick.btk (under Shredder-GUI) for CM9 and the commercial books for the other programs, whereas we chiefly let all programs play with the remis.ctg (write protected, thus no learning). We wanted to test playing strenght of engines only and not good/bad books. In my opinion the last point may have the greatest influence on the outcome of matches, and furthermore the Kostick book may be too old fashioned to keep up with other modern books. And eventually, there is always a statistical margin of error in all matches played. Kurt
