Without wishing to denigrate the achievements of all the people involved in this tournament, nor the entertainment aspect I'd like to ask:
What is the statistical power of a 90-game round robin? Would this be a publishable result with p < 0.05 (or the new 0.005) against the null hypothesis that Stockfish and Houdini (2nd place) were of equal skill?
