THAT IS SURE!

getting more serious and trying to add my 0.02 of euro ...
I dont feel Golem is a Crafty clone more than a Chess tiger or fritz clone.
I'ts a simply and bugged alfa-beta and so can be a clone of 50% of program
arount.
Honestly I think that Cristophe affermations about it its a little bit too
strong. Maybe He want to says that simple programs like golem are not iteresting
from his perspective and iI really can believe it 'cause is sure Cristophe
already knoews tha alfa-beta algoritm.
In any case I dont pretend to add any new thing to CC.
I'm just enjoing buinding up my creature and I'm waiting to dominate a little
more the old CC tecniques before try something new.
If anibody see anything new on golem play .. was not intentional so .. blame
golem not me ;-)
