Go up one level in this thread


Because of the different variables i.e. different books, ponder off, ponder on
and change of Tiger styles it is hard to draw conclusions, simply observe.

If I do this again, all games would be run under identical situations

We know Ruffian doesn't like ponder on ...but how much difference did it really
make?

Excluding Ruffian 2 and CM 9000, according to SSDF, there is a 93 ELO difference
between top (Shredder 7.04 and bottom ChessTiger 15) with a +/- 26-31 or a
potential 57 point swing. Now it all of a sudden seems possible to have that
fluctuation with what could be a mere 36 point difference.

Paul
