Thanks Dennis   :-)

There are other testers who should be mentioned for their efforts in running
tournaments also - Kurt, Sedat, Adolfo, Leo(WBEC Ridderkerk), those posting
their results in the Winboard forum plus all the CEGT, AEGT and SSDF testers.
The trouble is when I try to list them all, I'm bound to leave somebody out. If
I have done so please don't be offended whoever you are!

It's the combined efforts of everybody that gives us all an overall picture.
We read time and time again the comment that can dampen the enthusiasm of any
tester - "not enough games, your results don't say anything!"
However most results are very reliable and this tends to be reinforced by the
many rating lists out there.
Also, it's the big picture that counts. When several run small tournaments or
matches with similar results, that does indeed tell us something.

Regards, Graham.
