Hi Uri,

While you are expecting 100+ elo improvement, I am just not so gullible.

Those are internal results, and well.. I am not completely trusting of anything
relating to Gandalf until it is proven from an external source.

I stand by my 50 elo improvement estimate, but there is nothing stating I could
be wrong. It has happened before.. 1999 I believe :)
