1. try def+hyp 2. why don't you play 3'+2" what is the sense to play 3/0 computer games ? the result at the END of the game says nothing about the playing strength of the program. if e.g. program A is leading with 4 pawns but has 10 seconds less on the clocks and this happens near 20 seconds before the game is over, you have a WON game for A but in your table the game is "saved" as WIN for B (timeout). Only because A is 10 seconds weaker. what is the sense of such data ?? IMO this kind of data only shows which program can move faster, but not which program is strong. if e.g. A is better in 30 games, but loses all 30 because of timeout, you conclude that B is the stronger chess program ?? what a nonsense.
