Subject: Point of WCCC99

After seeing the current results, and when comparing them to say the SSDF. Can
someone tell me other than getting a group of guys together and playing chess
with computers, what really the winner of this tourny will get out of it other
than a title.

Nothing against Shredder for example, (I have Shredder2), but if it wins, I
would not think that it is better than the rest and would feel a little let down
if it did win, cause really I do not think it deserves to be caused world
champion.

Just my opinion, what do other thinks about this. I am not picking on any one
program, as it is early, and I have nothing against the programs or people. But
with so few games I wonder what really the point of playing is, apart from fun.
and to let the people with multi processor compute come out and have some fun.
