Peter will probably play.  He seems to like doing this, and blitz in console
mode is the way I would play anyway, so it isn't a problem.

I don't think Crafty will do very well here however.  All my tuning has been for
long time controls.  The parallel search.  Search extensions.  Evaluation.  I
have not done any blitz for testing at all with respect to tuning anything.  For
certain the parallel search is poorly tuned for very short searches, because of
some opteron NUMA issues I had to handle..
