If he denies that, then i believe Ed on his word. If he doesn't deny it nor reacts then i assume it was a contractual thing with icc that took care that during the broadcast of man vs machine challenge Rebel was the only event that was getting broadcasted. What's wrong with such a question? I was very pissed off that Khalifman-Leko broadcast ended abruptly and that people got nuked from the icc server, without giving an explanation other than that: "icc no longer broadcasts Khalifman-Leko", though they did that for 4 other games without any problems. Your reaction on my question is completely insane. Vincent
