I understood that and told the director that I would wait and I did wait for over one hour and they made the decision to end the game. I knew that Pepito was more than capable to beating me that made no difference, it was the playing that was important to me. It is no great dishonor losing to a better program, especially one rated more than 700 to 900 points than you are. I play for fun and always will, not for some commercial expectations. Bill
