I think that you forget that 19.15 has 200% result against every program in the
ssdf list.

If you do not believe me then take the number of games that 19.15 played in the
ssdf against program X(0 for every X) and multiply by 200%.

You will find exactly the number of points that Crafty19.15 got in the ssdf
against X(0 for every X).
