At the moment Go Intellect, Indigo and Many Faces have finished, with Go
Intellect at 11 points, Indigo and Many Faces 9, so GnuGo outperformed
Indogo and Many Faces and drawing with Go Intellect depends on the last
game. There is also Magog that has 8 points out of 12 games, so his
theoretical maximum is still 12.

Yes, you are reading them right. Today we played with Jimmy and GNUGo won
both games. We still have to do Indogo that has this far won all the
games, but GNUGo is feeling brave:)
