The comparison between CM9_Blitz and CM9_Gladiator shows a big difference of
12.5 points out of 70 games (half time) and a score of 60.7 % against only
42.9 %. It seems as if the Gladiator settings do not work well at the time
control 15m+10s. Under these circumstances we abstain from also testing
CM9_Gladiator in the second half of the tournament.
<b>Der Vergleich nach 70 Partien (Turnierhälte) zeigt, dass dem CM9-Setting
Gladiator die Bedenkzeit 15m+10s nicht liegt, denn The King Blitz hat sage und
schreibe 12.5 Punkte mehr erzielt, ein Score von 60.7 % statt nur 42.9 %.
Wir werden deshalb die zweite Hälfte des Turniers nur noch mit dem CM9_Blitz
spielen und den weiteren Vergleich weglassen.</b>
