2) At some point in the ladder, GNU Go quietly dies without responding to the move request.
Could you reproduce that? Do you have sgf? GNU Go has some troubles in some compiler and OS. e.g. GNU Go 3.9.1. gcc 4.1.2, Debian 4.1.1-21, 32bit stops following sgf. I use own patch for GNU Go 3.7.10. http://computer-go.org/pipermail/computer-go/2010-November/001813.html And insert "if ( eye_size >= MAXEYE-2 ) break;" in optics.c, line 1234. /* Create list of eye vertices */ for (pos2 = BOARDMIN; pos2 < BOARDMAX; pos2++) { if ( eye_size >= MAXEYE-2 ) break; if (!ON_BOARD(pos2)) Regards, Hiroshi Yamashita ----------------------------------------------------------------- (;GM[1]SZ[19] PB[Aya 7.04b] PW[GNU Go 3.7.10] DT[2010-11-22] RE[W+6.5]KM[6.5]TM[]RU[Chinese]PC[]EV[]GN[]AP[Aya 7.83g] ;B[qd];W[dd];B[dp];W[oc];B[pq];W[po];B[ld];W[qq];B[pc];W[pr] ;B[qm];W[cn];B[fq];W[bp];B[cq];W[ck];B[dl];W[en];B[fc];W[fe] ;B[cl];W[dk];B[ek];W[bq];B[bl];W[om];B[pk];W[cr];B[ee];W[ed] ;B[fd];W[ef];B[ge];W[de];B[fg];W[dh];B[dj];W[cj];B[ci];W[di] ;B[bj];W[ej];B[ch];W[bk];B[bi];W[ak];B[fo];W[fk];B[nk];W[eb] ;B[ec];W[db];B[dc];W[cc];B[el];W[fm];B[ho];W[fb];B[dg];W[eg] ;B[oq];W[gd];B[gc];W[hd];B[od];W[or];B[qp];W[pp];B[qr];W[rq] ;B[nr];W[nq];B[mq];W[np];B[hc];W[ic];B[id];W[he];B[ib];W[jc] ;B[hf];W[ie];B[if];W[je];B[mr];W[jf];B[lf];W[mp];B[kp];W[ig] ;B[hb];W[jb];B[lh];W[sn];B[hm];W[fl];B[mm];W[rl];B[ql];W[rj] ;B[rk];W[fs];B[os];W[op];B[lp];W[sk];B[qk];W[rh];B[ph];W[sl] ;B[hk];W[ji];B[hi];W[qf];B[hg];W[ih];B[hh];W[lj];B[kj];W[nj] ;B[ki];W[mk];B[nl];W[of];B[ff];W[gf];B[aj];W[cf];B[fj];W[cg] ;B[dr];W[br];B[co];W[bo];B[dn];W[dm];B[do];W[em];B[cm];W[bn] ;B[al];W[dj];B[nc];W[ds];B[qg];W[rg];B[qi];W[pf];B[ri];W[si] ;B[re];W[rf];B[qj];W[sj];B[gr];W[fh];B[gj];W[gs];B[gg];W[hr] ;B[rn];W[ro];B[qo];W[rp];B[so];W[ps];B[sm];W[sf];B[ge];W[ee] ;B[qn];W[jj];B[kk];W[gn];B[go];W[kg];B[lg];W[jr];B[er];W[es] ;B[iq];W[lb];B[hq];W[ir];B[kr];W[fi];B[mb];W[nm];B[ml];W[mo] ;B[nn];W[on];B[mn];W[lo];B[kn];W[jq];B[jp];W[ks];B[gm];W[kq] ;B[ls];W[lq];B[lr];W[fr];B[gq];W[hs];B[cp];W[eo];B[ep];W[jk] ;B[bg];W[ah];B[la];W[ka];B[kd];W[jl];B[jd];W[ma];B[kc];W[nb] ;B[mc];W[kb];B[gf];W[pb];B[ob];W[oa];B[qb];W[oc];B[eh];W[ei] ;B[ii];W[jg];B[bf];W[be];B[bc];W[bb];B[cd];W[cb];B[bd];W[ce] ;B[ob];W[rd];B[qe];W[oc];B[ia];W[pa];B[qa];W[jn];B[fn];W[am] ;B[jo];W[in];B[hn];W[sp];B[io];W[km];B[lk];W[ni];B[lm];W[mj] ;B[gb];W[ga];B[nh];W[ln];B[lc];W[la];B[fa];W[ea];B[im];W[jm] ;B[ko];W[sn];B[sh];W[gl];B[hl];W[bm];B[ob]) ----------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@computer-go.org http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
