Crafty is just one of several top-tier amateur programs.  It has been this way
for a while now.

If you look at the history section of the website, you'll see that Crafty
recently finished behind Yace in the last Division 1 tourney, and behind Yace,
Comet, and Lambchop in the previous AmCom tourney.

Crafty hasn't gotten weaker.  It just has some company now.  :)
