The downside of this event for Crafty is that I don't think your 16 cpu Alpha would be allowed anyway! :)) So you are playing on field that is pretty much hardware level, so therefore the edge must be given to the commercial programs, but certainly Crafty could be the spoiler! Hope you find someone to run Crafty for you there.
