Thanks!  I liked the game, of course.

I'm afraid blind luck was the deciding factor this time.  My engine likes to
take enormous
risks.  In 9 out of 10 cases, it loses, and looks extremely stupid and clueless
in the process.
The last 10% of the games sometimes end up looking very interesting.

Gothmog's style of play can best be described as an attempt to make the opponent
fall
off his chair laughing.  Occasionally it works, as Kurt's game proves.  :-)
