That game was played by EASY level. Heres a game by Advance Level

In this game Zebediah was a knight ahead but later sacrificed its
knight to bring a quick end.

You mean that Getclub gifted him a knight and then played like a
patzer. This play is basically insane. There is something wrong with
either the evaluation function or the search algorithm.

I think the quiescence search is either not implemented at all or
somehow broken.

My instinct too. Some moves are otherwise inexplicable.

Just for fun, I played a game between GetClub (running
on a 2.4GHz Core2 CPU) and my mobile phone (I think it has a 400MHz
ARM CPU). I expected my phone to be tactically outplayed, but the
exact opposite happened. Here is the game:

Looking at Shredders computer analysis it is clear that the mobile
phone always had a deeper effective search than GetClub.
About what nominal rating is Glofiish chess?

The phone runs Windows Mobile 6 and I installed CEBoard and a PocketPC
version of crafty. The program analyzes about 15k nodes/s. I don't
know what rating that translates to, but it's about 500 times slower
than crafty running on my desktop PC.
