"DarkThought" was on the road to ensure good winning chances in the game against "Rebel" when it chose the stupid e5? some moves earlier. (Given a bit more time, "DarkThought" would have played a better move. Hence, we were also only seconds away from finishing 3rd overall ... :-( In the end, the draw in this game was quite fair IMO. =Ernst=
