Mike Valvo played deep thought a 2-game move every day or two type match around 1990 or so. CCC came around 1996, maybe early 1997. Steve can probably answer that. I was playing with the first version of crafty on what was (at the time) called FICS in December of 1995. It later became ICC as we know it today, a couple of years later. The internet is a lot older than Al Gore would have you believe. :) I had email in 1980 or a bit earlier if you count the more limited arpanet network run by basically DOD and DOE.
