Subject: It's OK for the author to get excited about a small test set

Go up one level in this thread

After all, Rybka is probably the strongest single CPU chess engine in the world
(that we know of and that is available to us).

To beat it even in a fluke game is pretty amazing.

So if after the tiniest possible non-zero sample (read 'one') of games promising
results are shown (e.g. "I drew Rybka!" or even "I beat Rybka!"), it is possible
and permissible for the program author to sing songs, compose poetry, and dance
a jig [even simultaneously].

IMO-YMMV.
