The wbuci adapter weakens Crafty in Fritz GUI dramtically.  It is way to use the
winboard engine in Fritz for fun - but do not take it seriously.

The issuse is the adapter sends a "new" command with every move.  That resets
Crafty to new game status for every move which is not how Crafty is designed to
play at full strength.  Winboard Crafty plays best installed as a Winboard
engine in either Winboard or Arena GUI.
