I did a CRC check on >the two .cmp files, and they match. Did they play with the same opening each 2 games and alternating each game? To be more specific: The game starts with Pers_1 as White and with a specific opening A. Then in the second game where White will be Pers_2 and Black the Pers_1 the opening is the same A. Then again Pers_1 has White and starts with an opening B. Then White is Pers_2 and starts again with the same opening B. And the procedure continues.... Did you make that? I guess you played the match in CM9000 GUI so you don't have the ability to make such a thing automatically, so the book moves were random and that's why the score differs. The strange thing would be if you made the procedure i described (play with the same opening every 2 games and alternate the 2 personalities each game) and have different results. One easy-obvious thing you can do, to see if the 2 personalities are the same is to compare their analysis in 3-4 positions.
