I believe that in the case of my last game, the cat did not got the rat
because the cat was a root processor.

Fritz5.32 had a clear advantage but failed to win because it chose to go to the
position that I posted instead of going to a better position.

I did not post the position that Fritz went wrong but only the position when the
evaluation was changed because the reason for going wrong is the fact that
fritz5.32 is a root processor.
