just one more thing: you are conducting ONE experiment: how does the opening
book influence the match result of jonny-movei. you have posted about a zillion
(ok, i'm exaggerating, i know) intermediate results, with cross-references all
around. it is very hard to follow such a flood of posts.
here's a constructive suggestion: wait until you have all matches finished and
then publish the results:

jonny - movei:

book A: 16-4
book B: 11-9
book C: 5-15

that is about all information that is needed. one click, a 10-line-post, and
that's it, people interested in this experiment will be grateful that they don't
have to look up all the information in 10 different posts.

i'm not saying that your experiment is useless in itself. the influence of
opening books is an interesting question. but if you play too little games (and
it doesn't matter whether that is 10 or 20...) it's just tossing coins...
