Isucktafm, of course you are not being a smartarse, if we don't discuss these things we might never really know what is going on. I would too expect that there should be differences between the options, it's just that I couldn't spot any pattern forming. But I could have been unlucky with my sample (which was realtively big though or so I think).
Anyway, even if theoretically there are differences between the options (hopefully someone may officially answer some day), I am pretty confident those differences are not making much difference in practice, otherwise a discernible pattern should be evident after running about 20 experiments with 20 players each. I, for one, didn't see any.
