Faile is not very strong, and probably has great pedagocical value for
beginners (the source code is very clear and readable).  The problem is
that it (like most small and simple programs) suffers from a certain
lack of personality which makes it boring to play against.  This is a
highly subjective opinion, of course.

I occasionally use Faile as a sparring partner, but it is not among my
favorites.
