You don't get my point. If you put in 20 games that end decisive (either win or
draw), you can save a lot of processor time because the match will result with a
50% score anyway.

When there are 10 games that end decisive, and engine A normally always beats
engine B ( so scores 100%) it can now only score 75%.
