  I fed game 6 of Fischer vs. Spassky into the Game Analysis board twice and got different results.  Why would this be?  Is there a random factor to it?

 

Strength White Black
Excellent 38 33
Good 3 6
Inaccuracy (?!) 0 0
Mistake (?) 0 1
Blunder (??) 0 0
Forced 0 0
Best Move 46.7% 34.5%
CAPS 93.78 70.38
Avg. Diff 0.10 0.36

 

Strength White Black
Excellent 34 31
Good 7 8

CAPS 96.12 60.46
Avg. Diff 0.13 0.37

 

I know it's only one game, except Spassky's 60.46 and 70.38 CAPS score according to the link here suggest he played like a sub-1200 player in that game.  Fischer's two CAPS scores average out to 94.95, about 2350 or so.  CAPS seems a bit inconsistent.
