We would very much like to have Crafty here, but I don't think Crafty is more important than Shredder, Junior, Fritz, Diep, Deep Sjeng, ParSOS, IsiChess, etc, to deserve a special treatment. Bob repeats the "I don't know, you don't know" thing over and over. But I have all along said clearly how the tournament will be held here, and just repeated it. If he comes here, or sends someone on his behalf to operate Crafty, then Crafty will participate. Otherwise it won't. >That is such a no-brainer. But alas, there are no brains running this event. Thank you for your compliments. If instead of attacking us so much you have tried to organize next year's WCCC somewhere in the US, we might have all been enlightened by your brains and wisdom...
