Torsten, You don’t indicate the version of SOS you are using. As SOS.3 for Arena was just released I’m sure you did not use it in these latest games. Right? Preliminarily, I think SOS.3 for Arena is very strong. I’m doing a number of Nunn 2 engine blitz matches, 50 - 5'+10" games. Ruffian 1.0.1 has won against Gambit Tiger 14 by a score of 27-23 and against Junior 7 by a score of 26-24. So far the Ruffian 1,0.1 v. SOS.3 for Arena match is tied 10.5 - 10.5. I think if you run these games again against the newer, much stronger SOS engine you’ll find that SOS will do considerably better. I know the four games of your tournament of SOS v Ruffian show SOS winning 2.5 - 1.5, but four games against one engine is far to few to draw any conclusions as to the relative strength of those two engines.
