2 things
  a) SSDF is not independant but they ask for hardware donations 
before they can garantuee that a program is on th elist. So i REFUSE
to do that. It is my policy to not on a list which is made by people
who are according to my definitions corrupt.

 b)  the level is 40 in 2. this guy asks after 10 minutes a game.

Doesn't take away that tiger is not a bad blitz program either, when
equipped with the special tournament book.
