The following adjustment is done to the drifting game. In the first version, DNA differences were counted sequentially, meaning that within each group each organism was compared to its neighbor. By changing this so that every organism is compared to every other organism, and then divided to the number of comparisons done within each group, the number of DNA differences within each group is much more accurate. This makes the increasing differences, the drifting, much more obvious.
The screenshot displays the number of differences just a few years after separation of the groups.
