There isn't any way to find these accounts easily, as I don't suppose there's a grep on finger notes. When I'm mucking around at ICC, I'll use the "who C" command to check out all the logged-on computers. Often you see an account you don't recognize, and then finger it to get the info. For example, 3028.crafty(C) 1931^StrongBach(C) 803^BabyBach(C) 2825^Data(C) 1930^JSBach(C) 2344^MasterMarc(C) 2808^KillerGrob(C) 1829^CraftyLoaf(C) 2353:ROBOadmin(C) 2677^EA6PZ(C) 1824^Setzer(C) 1344^BulletD(C) 2652 razzle(C) 1617^WimpB(C) ----.analyzer-bot(C) 2540^GODMODE(C) 1528^JackBach(C) ----^BulletB(C) 2464:Amateur(C) 1472^BozoC(C) ----^BulletC(C) 2450^SSE(C) 1439^WimpC(C) ----.Jeeves(*)(C) 2387^BugChess(C) 1423^PDQBach(C) ----.KBNk(C) 2330^RedBear(C) 1291^WimpD(C) ----.KQkn(C) 2036^Flambe(C) 1203^ReBach(C) ---- KQkr(C) 2027^Argon(C) 1119^BachChoy(C) ---- KRkn(C) 1995^Radon(C) 1089^WimpE(C) ----:Omniscient(C) I don't recognize "razzle," so the finger tells me it's another crafty. RedBear turns out to be one of the CSTal accounts. The characters before the prog name show the status, eg, Amateur is not open, and BugChess is playing. You can look at the current status of all comp games with "ga *C". When I see it again, I'll make a note of it. Will
