I hate using the noplay option, as I think that anyone should be able to match you if it fits your formula, but I couldn't seem to set the formula to stop the games. I was guessing that the 'rematch' command that some computers issue automatically might allow a game, even if it doesn't fit your current formula. I tried logging out and then back in later (which I thought would disable any automated rematching), but there were still more games from him. Here is my formula as it stands now. I tried many combinations when I was trying to prevent the 1 0 games against the 2800 crafty clone.
