I wonder why the version 3.61 (IID) by Dann Corbit has
relatively weak results in RWBC compared to version 3.6?
(only 15 games so far I know, but being in danger of
demoting from Class C is not what I ever had expected...)

Has anyone more games for both to compare?

I have data to compare but for the following Scidlets:

If I remember right, there was a drop off in strength between 3.6 and 3.61 that was reported by many testers.

I do not know what caused this difference.
