This is the match that has aggravated me more than just a bit. Not that I am pulling for either engine to win- best for testers to try and stay away from that. My point is I was hoping for a very very close match at 40/40 repeating. Some call it an intermediate control, but I call 40/20 intermediate and 40/40 the beginning of the long controls. At the 1st Update it was a 1 game difference- but not so now.
**Just in case there might be one person who doesn't follow it, this a 40/40 repeating match. I am running it at 40/21, which would be 40/40 for, say, CCRL. The idea is to benchmark each machine so they will all be adapted to the same time control. A slower core, like the 32bit box I have, would be benchmarked at 40/58 repeating to adapt to 40/40. Hope this helps if even 1 person did not understand the idea behind it.
