----- Original Message ---- From: Don Dailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I don't care what people say about handicap systems, if you are the stronger player you must start from a dead lost position. Even though I'm not a strong GO player, common sense tells me that you will have to play "unsound" moves on purpose to have a chance.
Yes, any pro will tell you that: to win against a large handicap, you must make overplays. With smaller handicaps it may be enough to patiently wait for the weaker player to make a mistake. > But we could simply add a few more stones and let it play Gnugo. I'd be very interested in seeing how many stones a supercomputer could give GnuGo or other programs. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
