For crying out loud. It is a fast time control tournament (most definitely NOT tournament controls of 40/2) run using auto232. It neither deminstrates inferiority nor superiority. What is shows is exactly this... For a particular set of controlled conditions: Games are "played on two PIII-500 with 256 MB RAM. Time controls are 40 moves in 40 minutes, each participants play 20 game matches against all other participants, total 420 games." A single experiment gives the following crosstable (see the site for actual data). The Rebel products have a known problem with Auto232. The data for the tournament shows all programs about equal, [except for Rebel Century, which is taking a pounding (Er... I'm starting on that poem right away)] No conclusions can be reached from this data -- pro or con. It does appear that Rebel Century is not performing as well as the others. Could be Auto232 or something within the program itself. Without additional experiments, we'll never know.
