Could it be that most people on yahoo have a junior 6a ticking in the background-since it is allegedly the best-and therefore it's not very easy to outsmart anyone by using simply junior, as all of juniors moves are pre-empted? And of course, giving junior much less than 40 in 40 or game in 60 is anyway not what junior is all about? I'm personally not very interested how well a program does in blitz against another which is maximised specially for blitz but doesn't play much stronger in 3-5 minutes per move.
