Your personal battle with Diepeveen is not my problem, so it is not relevant or
me if you like to continues your children battle. The relevance was to point out
the reason why Diep was not present in CCT6. Period.

If you telll me that I am a lier at first. What good think can I think of you
(despite of I have never written any negative comment of Crafty in this Forum)?

No, I have not assumed anything. It is an idiocy to say that I have assumed
something that I have never said. You seemed not to understand what I said: You
are fortunated that you can have free time to compete in chess Tournament. I
cannot do that in Venezuela for the known reasons.

This is garbage because I have not declared such thing, Hyatt. So, be more
careful to the person with you have your street fight.

Again: I did not say that you declare something. Why do you feel that I am
attaking you? I only said: "The declaration that Crafty can crush Hydra is a
nonsense. could only conclude that after a long match with clear facts. Such
Match has ever been showed?" I have not mentioned that you said that.

Right and obvious: a bad operator can make disaster with a chess program (I
think that something similar happened with Crafty in some CCT Tournament, could
you remember what Edition of CCT (CCT4!?)?

Well, it seems to be that it is not true at all because you feel attacked here
when my intention was not that. Then, who misunderstood the message?
