Giraffe replaced.

I've replaced Giraffe 20161023 64-bit with Orion 0.3.0 64-bit, as there is clearly something wrong with this latest version.

Hi Graham,

Could you please elaborate? Is it buggy?

For one thing, I had quickly noticed that this new version was much weaker than the previous one, just by playing against it.

Thanks,

It makes outright blunders in about 10% of its games and is much weaker anyway.
