Thanks for the input bennyk. I'll give GNU a try. If anyone has details of the competition where GNU beat snowy it would make a very interesting read.

Found it

From the post:
"I just finished a series of 100 7-point matches between Snowie 4 and
GNU 0.13 in order to see how they did. The series...finished 56-44 in
GNU's favor."

The rest of the post shows that GNU may not have been substantially better when luck was adjusted for.

This post is about a money match between GNU and Snowie

VERY interesting...
