I can pick a series of games from the week before where I won *7* and lost *0*. so you can't cherry-pick one good result. Here's how things *really* look, and I am excluding results from the last 4 weeks where I had the SMP computer... This is strictly crafty vs DiepX and crafty vs DoctorWho... on equal hardware: Crafty has won 82 against diepX, lost 29, and drawn 24. *total* against handle "DiepX" Against DoctorWho, Crafty has won 16, lost 2 and drawn 3 since he started using diepx... Now, to resolve this, I suggest we take this to ICC and play a match, any time control you want... Then we can decide who's ideas work, when we have some numbers to look at. But my numbers are *nowhere* your cherry-picked numbers... And none of the above include the ALR hardware... it would be *much* worse in that case, as I only see two losses total in the ALR data... and they have played plenty of games... And don't go into the "bug" discussion... I have had *serious* bugs too, just fixed a bad one that screwed totally up the repetition code...
