It would be rather easy, and I'm sure several CCC readers could actually do it,
to let Tiger 12.0e play blitz matches against various versions of Crafty.
Each match could be at least 400 games long. It would be possible in just a week
to confirm what you say, if it is true.
Given the interest generated by the free engine, I guess many people would be
interested in these results.
