You are making a fine contribution to chess in general, and computer >chess in particular. Based on prior tournaments, at action chess speeds, crafty can play with lower- to-middle-class GM players just fine. I posted some games here last year where it won/drew (2 game round robin match) with Roman, Won/Drew with Larry Christiansen, and also played 2 games against another GM but I now don't remember the result or the GM... But it was 30 0 time control. Which is _far_ different from 40/2hr of course. And the 2600 on ICC is primarily action-chess type ratings as well.
