He wrote that Yace Paderborn is in his opinion about 100 ELO weaker than Crafty
16.19. He did not refer to the list.
In case you missed it, Yace Paderborn is not in the list.
I can claim that Junior 7 and Hiarcs 8 are not more than 100 ELO stronger than
Yace Paderborn because we have the results of SSDF:

16 Junior 7.0  256MB  Athlon 1200 MHz      2699   25   -25   801   54%  2670
17 Hiarcs 8.0  256MB Athlon 1200 MHz       2684   22   -22   996   53%  2663
35 Yace Paderborn  256MB Athlon 1200 MHz   2606   35   -35   389   48%  2619

This is not a proof of course. It just supports my opinion.

All members have always the right to disagree if someone posts his opinions
about something here.
That's what I did.
