I only take responsibility for "crafty" as it plays on ICC because >I know what it uses. Do you mean that games played by people other than you are not valid? The book, the sound General that comes with F5, wasn't Crafty's, but it was much better and bigger than Tiger's skeleton book of 7682 positions. I used this midget book precisely to compensate for Crafty not playing with its own. This book difference must have played in favor of Crafty by giving more computing time to it. You can check for yourself that Crafty didn't dislike its positions after book. So maybe Crafty didn't always play its favorite lines, but neither did Tiger. I checked for differences in Crafty as a winboard engine and as a native engine for Fritz, and I could not detect any, except for winboard running about 2% faster in NPS than Fritz. I checked this with games and test positions: same moves, same PVs. Below I copy some.
