You should use winboard to play matches between winboard engines. The weird way
Fritz communicates with them makes such a match very unreliable. I like the
result, though :-).

Anyway, it is true that The Crazy Bishop got good results in blitz tournaments
recently. It got poor results at slow time controls, however, like in 4th WB
tournament organized by Frank Quisinsky and Kai Skibbe. I wonder what the reason
is.
