Probably they would since they disagree in their LCT 2 solution times already.
It'd also be interesting to know how much the piece values influence play, i.e.
to compare 6666 with the original Bednorz settings...

Too bad. :)
Maybe someone else will volunteer? I don't have much time while my tournaments
are going on, and if I do, I test some other things than CM settings.

I have fiddled with these and other settings, but I just don't have the time to
properly test those modifications. I'm just happy the 6666 settings turned out
to be OK. :)
I suppose the CCC community will come up with improvements, now that these
settings are out in the open.
