My apologies!

When I thought about it afterwards, what you had said was that you've got some
good positional stuff (e.g. king attack, blocked positions) which would help you
in games against _humans_.

Therefore, the challenge should be that Crafty and DJr both play the same set of
_humans_ - not each other.

I'll try to get more into the habit of thinking before writing...
