Subject: CM9 Utz12n (CM9 X) report/results/settings refreshed

ENGLISH
Comparison between CM_9000 default and CM_9000 X (a personality created by Kurt
Utzinger)
After having tested both versions we can say almost for sure that the
CM9_X-setting is considerable stronger. This special CM9K-personality only lost
one match vs Gambit Tiger 2.0 aggressive, which in our opinion is the strongest
Tiger version. With the default settings we played 343 games 40'/40 and higher
with a total score of 52 %. With the CM9K-X settings there were 390 games (13
matches of 30 games at 40'/40) played with a score of 62 %. It should however
also be mentioned that we have not tested - and will not test - this strong
setting in blitz games.

GERMAN
Dies stellt ein Vergleich dar zwischen CM_9000 Original-Einstellungen und
CM_9000 X, einer Persönlichkeit von Kurt Utzinger. Nach ausgiebigen Tests mit
vielen Partien wagen wir mit grosser Sicherheit zu behaupten, dass das CM_9000 X
Setting bedeutend stärker einzustufen ist als die originale CM_9000. Mit dem
speziellen Setting resultiert nach 390 Partien 40'/40 eine Gewinnquote von 62 %,
wobei nur das Match gegen Gambit Tiger 2 aggressiv (u.E. die stärkste
Tiger-Version überhaupt) knapp verloren ging. In der Original-Einstellung wurden
343 Partien gespielt mit einem Gesamtscore von immerhin noch 52 %, lässt man
aber hier die Amateure weg, so ergibt sich ein klares Minus mit 47 % (223
games/104.5-118.5).

Conclusion / Schlussfolgerung

ENGLISH: A good example to demonstrate how important it is to play as much games
as possible, in any case, matches over 10 games only are not sufficient to prove
anything. / DEUTSCH: Ein gutes Beispiel, das zeigt, wie wichtig es ist, eine
genügend Anzahl Partien zu spielen. Auf jeden Fall genügen Matches zu je 10
Partien nicht.
