I now can't find the thread of circa 2 weeks ago where we were discussing what appeared as a possible anomolie to me. Anyway, for anyone who remembers and is interested, I ran a second set of 100 games. Basically, the personalities were Chessmaster 9000 with the following changes in both runs: pondering was off randomization was set to 20 the opening book used by both runs had only one line, which was: 1. d4 d5 2. c4 dxc4 after that, both white and black were out of book. The only change I made for the second set of 100 games was that I also cloned the ONE opening book that the two were using. So that while each had the same knowledge of 4 plies as indicated above, Physically there were two books. This may have had an influence since the second run showed 33 wins for personality 1 and 29 wins for personalioty 2. This is much closer to what I would have expected.
