There is a definoition for stability in Leo's page in http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/ The definition begins slightly below the middle of that page with the words: 2.stability:The engine should play a (test) series of 16 games with no more than one hangup(on my computer). I guess that you did not think about that definition when you used the word stable. Uri
