Actually it is 18.3...  but the only difference (so far) is a fix for the
kibitz (or lack thereof) at the beginning of a game...

I watched a couple of these blitz marathons by this guy and I thought it was
pretty interesting to watch as well.  Your king-side safety had better work
pretty well against him or you die.  I think I saw Crafty lose 1 game and
draw 2 out of 60 or so.
