Actually I think you maybe understating the increase.

After Shredder 8 lost it's 5 game to Crafty which was the last game it lost. I
decided to add the database of those games to my current rating list just to see
how high this was heading. Currently I also had 10 games v Ruffian Leiden.

I get the following which shows an increase of 140 over Shredder 7. There are
still some 76 games to play and it's hard to believe it can keep this pace up.
However again great job congratulations to Stefan and yourself and the best of
luck in Paderborn.
