I would like to know why people do even look at a list like the SSDF, with less than 200 games played for the top programs. I did run a test crafty16.19-cometB06 and got the following results (from nunn positions,nothing changed but time control, more details in "forget about computer-computer matches"): 15 min games 15,5 : 4,5 14 min games 14 : 6 5 min games 9,5 : 10,5 I thought that this shows that maybe less than 200 games played between 2 programs does not tell you which is how much stronger. SSDF played less than 200 overall for one prog. ! Now since some much more experienced people still take the SSDF list seriously I'd like to know what is wrong about my conclusion.
