you play 24 games against Hiarcs and Nimzo and you get 10.5 points
for cstal out of 24.

remember that MY match hiarcs vs. CStal was 5.5-4.5 for hiarcs.

All people here said that i am cheating or manipulating somehow !
also i said that cstal has no problem with nimzo and hiarcs.
i do not have nimzo 99a. only nimzo2000. So i don't know exactly
if Nimzo99a is stronger or as strong as nimzo2000.
so my results and your results correlate very good. the data fits together.
Not enough that it gets good results, it also plays very interesting games.
Thats more than many people avoke. they always want to suggest here that
cstal plays very brilliant games from time to time, but the results would
be very very sad.
So - since we have seen (you are my critics so you will not be "Infuenced"
by me or chris or paid or you don't cheat) that you get the same impression
it seems to be obvious that i was right and the people claiming that
i am manipulating or cheating or paid or whatever were wrong.
cstal IS playing nice games, and it IS able to get good results.

Thanks. who will be the next to proof it ? :-)
