The tournament will be as just as possible using only Crafty Book. This is the way I will play it, I will let Crafty 17.11 or whichever most people think is the best, to start with whatever opening it choses, play both sides until the end of the opening book, then I will input those opening lines to CMKing and let it play black, then I will reverse the side and repeat this procedure inputing the same lines to both programs. Each program will play 25 identical opening with both side of the board. Pichard.
