(Looking up "obnoxious"...)

No, I didn't think you were obnoxious. In fact you gave a
polite and nice answer, getting right to business: play Crafty
at ICC.

I was just expecting snide remarks from other people,
but most have been pretty polite :)

Which contempt value would you recommend against Crafty?
If this is in the crafty.doc, don't bother, I'll look it up.

I said I wasn't thrilled by the prospect of playing Crafty/Scrappy,
mainly because of the time it will take, and the smell of
gladiator play, where I am a participant. You didn't mention
the time: What is the longest time control you can play?
As I recall it you have never played standard
40/2 at ICC like I do?

I am considering this. I can just as well play
one game, and do it against Crafty. If I lose I lose
and then I can apologize for being disrespectful :)

Regards Ralf
