 1: Crafty v14.1
 2: WinZippy by Tim Mann
 3: clean slate again..all those noplayed before have another
chance..computers are also allowed to play fitter ...excepting those who
have +noplayed fitter..
 4: for those who engage in trying to "outblitz" fitter by shuffling the
pieces back and forth..you run the risk of being "noplayed"
 5: if fitter appears to be hung ..just type adjourn and try to resume
game...or disconnect...flagging when fitter is hung will get you
+noplayed
 6: computer vs computer by appointment only - message fitter or cpatwo
 7: those that flag w/o fitter making a move gets noplayed..period
 8: WIN_NT OS

I don't agree with the
" It is significantly stronger than the crafty
>version playing there" statement

I would be willing to run at your convenience any type of match that
would enable crafty(fitter) play Hiarcs play a game in 6 hours or so.
