i also think this
and if you read this thread from the start you will see i said just that..
here is my quote

>
>personally i am not so happy with the opponents the Res-Ruffian faced for its
>2383 rating

>it gained alot of points against weaker opposition and did not even play the R40

yes i agree we do not need an SSDF rating if it will play against PC programs

if it will play dedicated units then its very good

the goal is to compare "like kind with like kind" and establish a rating


the goal was never to acheive the "absolute truth" for strength
if it were the SSDF would test against Super GM'S and incorporate those ratings

enough games against humans have been played already to factor in these games

but to do so misses the whole point

i am a collector..something you just dont seem to want to understand
