You can ask and we can try to explain what we know.  The difference between full
and cleaned is a _lot_ of "noise".  IE they print a lot of # characters as they
search moves because the old ACM/ICCA rules said that you can not "query" the
computer to see if it is alive, but if you display output so that you can detect
a crash, you can restart...

Also when you enter moves, the characters often get interspersed with output
from
the program, which makes thing messy...

The "cleaned" logs are the thing to look at.
