By the way, from the point of view of statistical significance, about all we can conclude from this table is that Jellyfish is worse than the other three bots. There's only about a 1.7% chance that BGBlitz would beat Jellyfish by as much as it did if they were actually equal in strength. Obviously the Snowie-Jellyfish and GNUBG-Jellyfish margins are even more significant. On the other hand, a score of 519 to 481 (or a score even more lopsided than that) would have about a 12% chance of happening just by chance if GNUBG and BGBlitz were equally strong.
