Hi Sarah
No, I haven't considered playing Crafty at ICC as I do not like to play
on chess servers. I can live with the few sceptical people. They should
bear in mind that my lost games are published too ... and even if I would
play at ICC: how can anyone be sure that no computer is assisting me at
work?
