in the ship that left before the group arrived, yes, but once Luke and Co. arrived on the scene, Gaalan was the only one who got away.
Yet Gaalan was accompanied by 4 sith sabers, and those 4 sith sabers were killed. However, during the fight there was Gaalan, that female sith and 6 other sith and no reported casualties on the sith side.
BTW, if Gaalan was the only member of that task force to survive, how would he maintain control over 18 nightsisters?
what? Dooku knew Yoda was stronger. He TOLD Yoda that he (Dooku was stronger) but his inner monologue in DR makes it clear he knew Yoda was stronger. (thus the back-up plan).
Malak knew Revan was stronger, and that was the reason he would only fight him on the star forge. (and perhaps revan wasn't A LOT stronger than Malak? Which is the only thing I claimed with Kyp and Luke)
Anakin was stronger in the force than Kenobi, no doubt.
And after his encounter with Luke, Jacen realized he wasn't near Luke's level, but he never outright stated (inner monologue of course) that he was stronger than Luke.
Besides, i'm talking force only. It is repeatedly pointed out that Luke is a better swordsman than everyone else, including Kyp. your examples are all combat situations that involved sabers.
My only point is that Kyp isn't super far off from luke in the force.
Sorry if that caused confusion.

Those are contradicting statements.Dooku said he was more powerful than Yoda.
Dooku said that Yoda was more powerful than him.
I wonder which is higher canon?
Sidious said to Anakin that the Jedi were trying to take over. Did he mean that?
Kenobi said to Luke that Vader killed his father. Did he mean that?
People say things they don't mean in a fight. Its called bluffing.
You are trying to disqualify canon with your own interpretation of Dooku's intent.
I don't stand for you ignoring canon, so try again.
(way to take 1/4th of my argument and go off on this tangent anyway, and ignore the argument as a whole., Real classy.)
you are a fool. Sorry. But if you can't understand that someone can say something without meaning it, your life will be short and full of disappointed hardship.
He says it in ROTS. He then runs away from his fight with someone he is more powerful than. It is later revealed in DR that he didn't really think he was more powerful than Yoda. Nothing contradicts.
This is your weakest point. EVAH.
