Vincent could not operate it either. No, the reason he didn't show up is that he is a chicken. After all, that is the reason he keeps saying I don't make it to a WCCC/WMCCC event. Not the problem with the cost and time. So why do I buy _his_ excuse??? > >Perhaps, you are fullful of free time, but I must have a fulltime job in >Venezuela to get a good salary. Damn, that never occurred to me. I mean, when I said that I can't take off two weeks to attend an event in Europe, you (and others) assume it is because I don't think I have a chance of winning. Yet this event was on a weekend, required no travel, no expense, etc. So when I can't come it is because I don't think I can win. When you can't come, your reason is "good enough"??? The logic escapes me... > >The matter: The declaration that Crafty can crush Hydra is a nonsense. I could >only conclude that after a long match with clear facts. Such Match has ever been >showed? I didn't make the statement. I will make the statement that Hydra won't "crush" crafty. Given an 8-way opteron I am not even sure it would win a long match against Crafty, in fact... > >Again, CCT cannot be compared to a live Tournament such as Paderborn.

That shows a _weakness_ of Paderborn, not a strength.
