Ok, but there are ways and ways to make critics and you have exaggerated. I was
surprised that out of 4 games the score was so high considering that the book
was not specifically made for that program, a commercial book with so many
alternatives and that was doing quite well.

You have interpretated the message the way you wanted and criticized me for
that...this was wrong but instead of apologying you have continued.

You said that I was going not to tell the score at that was at least...while I
only said that I was not going to show more games...

Correct?
Read my post again.
If you are upset with someone for the Fruit story I have nothing to do with it.

For 4 games it is, but I did not say that the book would add something...this is
something you said...I only showed the games and the score...of course everybody
here knows the meaning of 4 games, so you should too.

I did not say that my books are better than yours or anybody else, but you
listed results which were wrong except one game we lost against Fruit.
So, you are complaining about 4 games while you are referring to one only; QUITE
FUN!

How many WCCC titles have you won?
I have won 8 including the blitz ones, but never said that the merit was mine as
always said the program won.
I this is true, than it is true also that the program lost...don't you think so?

The final score will be advised...I am confident it will be good...maybe not as
good as your books...of course!

It depends how one show the divergin opinion...

I have no problems with people that do not agree with me, but your way to
desagree is "QUITE ORIGINAL AT LEAST!"

You can post as much you want...did I said something on those? I did respect you
and your opinions as well as your work.
