Rebel10 have no autoplayer and Ed Schröder don't want us to test it. Hiarcs7 is
number one on our list.

Can you explain this statement of yours. Shouldn't we test any more tactical
programs? And what can we loose or win when testing whatever program. By the
way, I don't consider CM6000 tactical. It's more of a positionell player, human
like.

We've played 45 games so far.

That's the issue. Crafty just come as an engine to Fritz/Chessbase GUI. And it
seems that it can't play at its full power in that environment.
