Both of us know that.  It would probably take 10,000 games to find a clear
winner.  By which time both programs would have advanced, so essentially, we
would know nothing!

I want to see it for "THE CLASH OF THE TITANS!!!"

An epic battle between two mighty foes.  Swords clashing together with heroic
impacts in the dawn.  The mighty ebb and flow of the battle, as it rages on to
dusk.  Day after day, the mighty warriors bend their arms in a brutal conflict.
Neither flinching, neither giving in.  Toe to toe, for honor's sake with the
victor standing tall, and yet the vanquished is lost but not beaten.

The victor savors his golden hour, and the vanquished sharpens his sword for a
new day.
