I do not agree that it was the most idiotic statement ever made here. I saw other idiotic statements. I believe that part of the accusation was a misunderstanding. Some people including me understood that Amir meant to imply that you wrote a code intentionally to tell crafty to lose on time. I understood later from Amir's posts(He admitted that he did a bad job in explaining himself) that he only meant to say that crafty's behaviour in games against computers is abusive(for example not agreeing to a draw) and that the fact that crafty lost on time when it has nothing to lose from it is not only a bad luck but a result of some problems in crafty's code (It was discovered later that it was a tablebase bug).
