Jaap has never used normal pairing rules.  In a 12 player Swiss, round 1 should
see #1 play #7, #2 vs #8, etc.  Assuming Shredder was #1, Crafty would have to
be #7 which is pretty funny.  Or assuming Junior was #1 and Shredder was #2,
then Crafty would have to have been seeded #8 which is even funnier.

who knows what happens over there?
