I don't think that it was Crafty that went down 20-0. I believe that it was Bionic that lost :) That's why the question dealt with the possibility of Bionic playing better under Winboard... Perhaps I am wrong -- have no idea until the question is rephrased. Anyway, I have no idea what went wrong. These two programs (or versions of one and the same program) are very close in strength, with Bionic being definitely better positionally and Crafty tactically. And yes, I don't think that any program can beat Crafty 20-0 at blitz, yet... At lightning (bullet) I know of one that is close to it now :)) Regards, Djordje
