If not, if you look at any game without that, you get bored as hell. I cannot engage emotionally with a human team and less with CM or Tiger or any other inert thing like cars, clothes, etc. One exception: locomotives. But of course that IS different :-) Respect our field, I do understand to be interested to look a game between machines from time to time, but, always? To purchase programs for looking them playing with you as observer, always? To organize tournaments between machines AND always? That's for me sheer madness. OK, anyone has a right to his particular madness, no damage to non. Mine, to play personally the beasts, probably is just another kind of madness. Salutes and a sheerful Ktmas.
