But there is another way to make it pay off more reasonably. After you make a move, kill all the siblings and start thinking as if you were the opponent. Then when it's your turn again, prune the tree again to the relevant branches. Then you will get a modest improvement.
This is what my engine does. But it is still very weak. But I'm still working at it. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
