Okay, thanks for the feedback. I mentioned that I was allowing multi-stone suicide a couple days ago but no one said anything. It seems little more complicated to check for than single-stone suicide when only tracking pseudo-liberties. But I will get it in there and see what kind of improvement happens and how much it affects the speed.

You should never play suicide, whether multiple or single stone in the play-out portion of the search - ESPECIALLY when it's not legal anyway in the rule-set you are using. Although suicide can occasionally be the best move in some rule-sets, I think it weakens your program to include it, even in the UCT tree portion of an MC search. If the rule-set allows suicide, I believe it's best to just let your program accept suicide moves from the opponent. - Don On Wed, 2007-02-07 at 13:23 -0800, Christoph Birk wrote: > On Wed, 7 Feb 2007, Chris Fant wrote: > > Your paper does not mention suicide.
