At Leiden Johan de Koning mentioned he would not believe that the King plays better with other settings and that there were played too less games to say that other settings are better then the standard ones. I think that there is enough evidence to come to an opposite conclusion. We have played thousands of games at longer time controls with default/other settings but only published the most successful ones (default does not belong to them). If an author is not prepared to accept this fact, I see indeed no reason why CM9-fans should further test the engine with the aim to prove something. I was just angry and therefore decided to stop testing. What I do not understand is why there is made such a tumult about this matter.
