You can play another 4 series of these games and I bet you will get different
results as to the order. Plus you should check for doubles in games. One time in
8 games I had three that were exactly the same as games previously played.

One time I played 20 games each with 5 personality settings, and when I played
the next 20 games for each, the setting that was last in the first 20 games, won
the second series of games. CM6k with SS=10 lead most of my tests which range
into the hundreds for many time settings.

What you should do is, play a game between two settings, then reverse the same
game. so you start playing from the last part of the opening moves, that way you
will test the personalities from the position after they play the opening.

That will give you a more accurate testing of the personalites. That way you
will see how they play using the same openings and what they do after it. You do
not have to be sure where the opening moves end. CM6K will usually see and play
all the moves very fast till it is at the stage where the opening ends.

So when one game ends, take all moves back to the start, switch personalities so
the other plays the other colour, move ahead to about move 7 and start the game
from their.
