If you want to see which CM personality is the best, playing a huge RR
tournament with nothing but CM settings isn't going to prove a thing.  You can
however download 10 - 20 free engines, plug them all into Winboard or Arena and
play each CM personality the same amount of times against each engine and
determine from that the results.  Since its lightning it shouldn't be too hard
to get a good number of games.

Also remember whats more important (IMO) is playing aginst more opponents rather
than playing more games.  It gets a better overall picture of the engines
playing strength.
