Because some micro programs will run on parallel hardware and not be eligible for the WMCCC title for the year. Others might have a choice and choose one cpu to try for the WMCCC title, but then they will have no chance for the WCCC title since they will be on hardware far too slow. catch-22 if there ever was one. :) Bob
