Gambit fruit had one game in the previous list and the first interesting information was to see the place of Gambit Fruit. First I thought that Gambit Fruit dropped in the list maybe thank to some bad results in more few games that it played but then I discovered that latest movei is also not in the list. I guess that not including all versions is because of the comment of Eduerd Nemeth who complained about the fact that Gambit Fruit appeared in all versions and it seems that his comment was counter productive. I prefer to see rating list with all versions even if some version has only one single game. I do not jump to conclusions based on rating list about which version is better and I only prefer to see more information and not less information. You can also decide to drop out of the list programs with less than x games for some x because they may change the rating of other programs but even in this case it is going to be nice to have a special table of performance of programs with less than x games. Note that if you do not include programs with less than x games for the rating list for some x then the number of program with less than x games may increase and you need to repeat the process until no program has less than x games. I do not know if not including programs with less than x games for some x can help to have better rating list for the programs with at least x games. disatvantage is of course that the list is going to be based on less games but the advantage is that programs with little number of games cannot distort the rating of it's opponents.
