Thanks for the compliment in the first place. Your observations are very interesting for me. What in your opinion was it that made Rebel9 so much better than version 8? Same question for Rebel10 -> Century. I know these questions are hard to answer because the subjective nature. Keep in mind you maybe got a faster PC during Rebel9 and Century? >I hope that in the future you decide to Resume testing rebel on >ssdf, I think it would probally top the list, or come very close. SSDF is important due to the volume of games played.

Jeroen Noomen played a manual knock-out tournament with several programs he owns. Rebel-Tiger beat Rebel Century in the final with 3.5-2.5. Jeroen is preparing a review of his tournament for publication on the Rebel Home Page in which he will give his impressions of the participants which IMO says a lot more than the gained rankings. I am very interested in what Jeroen has to say about Tiger as not much is known yet except that it is super strong. Ed
