Hi,
The idea to run this match it's good. Many people who aren't familar to our forum will don't know that 10 games aren't enough to compare these 2 strong programs.
If one of both lose a single game, it will probably lose the match.

I think that at least 30 to 50 games will be good to compare then. But let play.

I know it perfectly, i am saying that it will be a great event for those who don't know that to have a good result of this match, because, if only i'm wrong, the main idea it's to compare the 2 best international draughts program. I respect both program.

I'm only saying that the result would be better if, over 10 games was played.
Don't forget that both of these wonderful programs have they fans, for example if Scan or Kingsrow win the first game and that the others 9 games are draws, People will have have a bad result.

I haven't nothing against this match, it's the first and it must be encouraged. I only brought some advices.

Sidiki.
