It was suggested that I should post my analysis of Stage 3 by quarters - which shows some striking variability in performance:

Q1: Komodo +3; Houdini, Stockfish +2; Critter +1; Gull, Rybka =; Fire, Shredder -4
Q2: Stockfish +4; Komodo +3; Houdini +2; Fire =; Critter, Rybka -1; Gull -2; Shredder -5
Q3: Stockfish +5; Komodo +4; Fire +2; Critter, Gull, Houdini -1; Rybka -3; Shredder -5
Q4: Houdini +5; Stockfish +4; Gull +1; Fire, Komodo =; Critter -1; Rybka -3; Shredder -6

I leave interpretation to others.
