Recently (August 84), Games Magazine ran a letter
from a guy whose basic thought was "Gee, it's real easy
to bust up some of your contests by having a PC do the
dirty work for you."

(FYI- Games Magazine has a contest or two in almost every
issue. Some, like this month's "Word Marathon" are ideally
suited to PC or VAX crunching (in fact I have several subprocsses
running at this very moment working on them) ).

My questions are: Are there many readers of Games magazine out
there? Do you enter the contests? Do you use a computer? Do you
wish people wouldn't use computers?? Do you want to discuss
computer contest crunching, this current conttest in particular??
