Sorry, you give tooooooo much credence to the power of the Programs!
The Human 'little grey cells' (remember Hercule Poirot?) still rule over
MIPS on a Silicon Chip. They have their bad days too...
Get em 'out of book, and that's where the GM's power comes into play.
As bad as I am, I beat a Comp.. "terrible Grob" or "Killer Grob"
something like that, a Comp Rated 2667, in a 3 0 Game, and Drew it another.
A friend of mine, a low rated Expert, raised his ICC Rating to 2550 +
by playing and beating every Computer there.
Don't forget Nemouth.. He kills em too!
