Actually, as I can see, Mr. Hedlund did not care to reply to my carefully phrased question. Ruffian is being tested in an unfair manner. Partly due to Perola Valfridsson's benign attitude to the SSDF testing methods, which is his own fault, partly due to UCI engines' not sending the results back to the engine. UCI is hopeless there... I only wished to point out this fact that may open the eyes of the CCC members who were not aware of the technicalities of this match. Fritz 8 keeps on learning and finetuning its book, while Ruffian never gets back the previous results... The final score should not be taken very seriously, IMHO. Rgds, Djordje
