Maybe a good question to the author of ELOSTAT ?

I agree with you. Further Genius 6,5 testing is needed; I must say that
Millenium's Chess System isn't that much "user friendly" when it stands to add
other engines to test against Genius.
Maybe I'll try some AUTO232 matchs with Blitz time controls with increment (1 or
2 seconds).

I've already tried to match Genius against the new Crafty 19, Genius got totally
overplayed by Crafty (1 min. bullet - KO match), but in 2 games Genius won BY
TIME, I don't know if this was a GUI issue as the final position of both games
are a clear win for Crafty (and I don't think Crafty is slower than Genius and
could loose by forfeiting on time):
