My opinion is that this and the way you treated Leo will not encourage people to buy Zappa. I did not decide if I will buy zappa and certainly the fact that you escape from tournament like WBEC will not encourage me to buy it. I think that getting 3th place in WBEC after Fruit WCCC and Shredder is better for you than not participating with Zappa2. Note that I did not say that it is obvious that zappa play a lot of weak moves but I am clearly disappointed from the fact that you did not give zappa2 to trusted testers like Leo so we can know nothing about it's results before it is released. I decided not to buy Zappa immediately when it is released and I will wait to result of testers and I will buy it only if I see that it performs well enough. Note that the delay in testing Zappa is not helping you because it is possible there are going to be better free programs some weeks after zappa is released so performance that is today good enough to justify buying zappa will not be good enough later.
