Remember that a lot of work has been done on "aggressiveness"... which is the right idea for playing humans, but not for playing computers. It is very likely that the recent changes in this regard have weakened Crafty against computers. But Humans have reported that it is *much* harder to even get a draw against it now than 6 months ago. Not sure which is the best approach, of course. :)
