A very interesting position aroused between Aristarch 4.4 vs TheKing 3.12(game
in 25).  After a wild opening, TheKing 3.12 went straight for Aristarch's king,
at this critical point Aristarch took the rook at a8, instead of the pawn at d5,
and was crushed.  How many programs avoid Nxa8 at a reasonable time?  (Aristarch
played Nxa8 after 35 seconds)
