It's easy to broke things in a complex system like a chess program and it's very
dificult to discover bugs, they are likely not to be discovered with just a few
days of testing.

It's my believe that days before an important event it's better to focus on
adjusting parameters, book preparation and hardware preparation than changing
code.
