20 games: +9 =2 -9

Ruffian has white in even numbered games. All games were played on my dual PIII
733, under the Arena GUI. Time control of 150/30 (game in two and a half hours,
30 second increment). 128 MB hash tables.

SOS went a little crazy in game 17. It would announce mate in 8, then it would
play a questionable move. It did this for quite a few moves. SOS eventually
found the mate and won, so it didn't affect the result.

I am suprised at the lack of draws, but I haven't run many computer matches, so
maybe that only happens in GM matches :) There were many exciting games. I was
suprised that SOS came back to tie the match. I guess I'll have to play another
20 games! (I've already started in fact)
