With Vincent it'll never be simply over. If he loses.. he'll argue 10 games is
not a statistical significance and consider the match pointless. Or, he'll
change 1 small setting and claim his program is magically much stronger now and
say the last match didn't count. He'll say Crafty had better hardware and say
the match didn't count there as well. He'll find absolutely anything, probably
boarding on insanity, to try to discredit both Hyatt and Crafty if/when he
loses.

For me it would seem this would just cause another few pages of asinine drivel
from Vincent and a lot of time wasted by Hyatt defending himself from this
mentally ill person.
