Obviously Chris just wants to get his .02 in.  The "problem" was something well
outside of the tournament organization.  This "+censor" issue has been public
knowledge for 3 months.  It would have been easy for Amir to say "Hey, I am
paired against Crafty, but apparently Bob has forgotten that he censored me,
can someone talk to him?"  IE this wasn't a sudden newsflash at 10:30 this
morning.  It has been in place for 90 days or more.
