Do you have a case when the following happened:
1)version X+1 of your program beat version X with a significant score.
2)version X+2 of your program beat version X+1 with a significant score.
3)version X of your program beat version X+2 with a significant score.

If the answer is positive then what are the changes that you made from X to X+1 and what are the changes that you made from X+1 to X+2?

This is what I call the 'marbles effect'. Take a handfull of marbles into a big flat parking lot (hope no one sees you) and then drop them a few times to see the large variance in the random patterns they create. Marbles in a programming sense is the randomness associated with any change to the code that causes one program to see what another does not or just simply causes programs to choose a different move now and then.
