Something seem wrong with the list.
I know that Hagrid0.7.56 is clearly better than faile based on results in Leo's
tournaments but for some reason faile has better rating.

I know that the number of games that they played is small but
even if I give both programs to play against the same opponents I expect Hagrid
to do convincingly better than faile and the only explanation that I can find is
if most of the opponents of them are very strong opponents so 0 against strong
opponents is compared with 0 against strong opponents but this is not a good way
to generate rating list and it is better to give programs opponents that are at
similiar level.
