Hi Barry,
        I saw some of your posts on this subject I think in early January. I
like the idea of getting some longish time control games with fast PC's to come
up with some type of rating for, well lets I guess say these endings as opposed
to engine endings.

If I had to guess right now I would guess the engines from CCRL's "Pure List"
http://kd.lab.nig.ac.jp/chess/CCRL-4040/rating-table-pure.shtml will finish in a
similar order or not very much different. Of course I would expect the amount of
drawn games to be high somewhere I would guess around 55% or so.
