If humans can prepare against determnistic machine then they only need to remember some winning lines and use them but I believe that if you change some parameters in fruit between games and do not tell people about your changes then no human will be able to score 80% against fruit in 10 games. Maybe a strong GM who decides to play against it in the style of pablo in playchess in order to beat it on time may get 80% on playchess but it is because of a bug in the playchess server and fruit under another interface is not going to lose on time after 256 moves.
