Hi Gábor

Well, it happens that Pharaon got fantastic results in my last cycle (look at
http://loirechecs.chez.tiscali.fr/chesswar/Cheswwar005/Chesswar005ASt.htm), and
this explains why it has this stunning rating.

I don't care a lot about rating lists, and mine is not a serious one, because it
is calculated with very few games, so it has no statistical value.
