It was Crafty 18.10 exactly as given the sourcecode on Bob's ftp site.

I compiled it specially for AMD. Some of my oponents generated PGN.
They added an X since most of the chessengines in WMCC where experimental and
thought Crafty was also. But Crafty was just the 18.10 as given on Bob's ftp
site and nothing experimental in it.

It was fun to operate Crafty in such games. That for sure!
