Moves were entered by hand, I set time control 5 0 on the Palm, games were 5 5 in the tourney. Hiarcs engine was set with ponder=on. I mouse-slipped a Queen away against Crafty in the first game in an equal(ish) position and resigned, but thankfully made no further mistakes in the tourney. Seemychess's finger notes are a joke. For this tourney seemychess was playing a "Monkey" variant of Deep Sjeng - i.e. stupid moves, and it lost all its games. ANYTHING would have beaten it. Finally, yes, I did draw against Shredder running on Dual Opterons! Mostly thanks to the book.
