I would much rather discuss who made the bad or good move, than discuss who's fault it is the game/match never finished. This is a relatively small window of time when we wonder who is better (hu)Man or Machine. Ten years ago, Man was clearly better, sometime in the future Machine will be clearly better (as they are now at blitz or 30min/game - just ask Gary). We are lucky to be witnessing this transition period. Cheers, Tina Long
