Base on this list I can't be sure Crafty 16.19 stronger than Yace 0.99.56.

Base on hundreds of games I can be sure that all recent versions of Crafty at
the same level as Yace 0.99.56 and Yace Paderborn. (See also SSDF).

But I now nothing about Crafty 16.19.

I want to suggest you don't make conclusions based on 30 games.
Of course, you may be right about strenght of Crafty 16.19, but to be sure you
need much more games.

Little example from my own testing:
After 200 games I can say: "latest SmarThink at the same level as Ruffian 1.0.1"

But after 450 games I can say: "latest SmarThink -40 rating points behind
Ruffian 1.0.1"

Where is the truth? Truth is not achievable :)
But we can became closer and closer. We just need more games.
