Is "Snitch" named after the item in a Quidditch game?

List of round 16 games as cited by Michael :

Code: Select all

Chispa 4.0.3 v Cyrano 0.3 (0-1)
Typhoon 1.00-348 v RomiChess P3k (draw)
GreKo 5.5 v Arasan 10.2 (0-1)
Snitch 1.6.2 v Popochin 3.1 (1-0)
Cheese 1.1b v Comet B68 (0-1)
Queen 4.02a v Asterisk 0.6 (0-1)
Horizon 4.4 v Xpdnt 080209 (1-0)

I just see one game with Romi, which seems pretty normal in a single round ?
