My game I posted was not to mislead anyone, I did say when the first reply post
came out that I did forget to put all details. Which I later corrected, but were
taken by you that I was misleading people, this was not the case.

It would be hard for me to try and put past people that one of the best chess
programs in the world would make a move that it is not programmed to make and
expect for this to go over the heads of everyone here.

This game has nothing to do with how strong Rebel 10 is in comparison to CM6K,
just that I want to know how strong the engine is when faced with openings that
it was not programmed to make. I think if a engine is strong then it should be
able to handle itself in these cases well.

And I still stand by my comments about the SSDF and Clodra. I feel that
especially with clodra, that playing games on such a variety of strong machines
against ones played on more weaker machines and then to post results on here
saying this program won is also misleading.
It was only by other poster saying that a certain program did very well
considered it was played on a very weak machine that I even knew what was going
on.

I cannot remember if you posted these results or someone else, but who ever did
left a huge bit of information. Just like when I posted my results with
information missing that makes things look very misleading.
