I set this position up. As I noted in my post crafty will never play into it. The position was reached vs an amateur program. I picked crafty to play this against because I know it cannot play it (neither could the original amateur program) I did not see any requirement in the original post that the computer must play into it. I would be hard to find ANYTHING where you can force the computer in 50% of the time, since you switch colors after every game :) -- GCP
