I hope it will get much stronger in the next few weeks as I wring out the
bugs.

It's nice to see Valkyria join.  Anyone else?


Yes, I gave it a try and I might have found the reason it has been  
playing so poorly on 19x19. My laptop overheat easily and if it uses  
100% CPU it will throttle the processor to extremely slow speeds.


What I did was I turned of the Ponder analysis which is not effective  
on 19x19 anyway, and then the processor work only 50% of the time  
against programs that uses the time. On 9x9 this is less of a problem  
thanks to the opening book and the short duration of the games so the  
laptop can cool off naturally.

It's a bug.  If the move generator returns no moves at an internal node in
the main search, it passes.  Mogo keeps playing on after there are no points
left.  During the search after the forced response to mogo's move, there are
no moves generated.  I don’t allow a pass in an internal node, so the search
returns an error and it passes.  It will be fixed in the next version (along
with many other bugs).  The Alpha-beta code barely works.  You can see how
weak the first few buggy versions very if you look at gnugo's crosstable.

I hope it will get much stronger in the next few weeks as I wring out the
bugs.

 What happened to Many Faces in game 6670?  Did it simply not care
 about all that territory because it already saw the game as a loss?

Does anyone want to put up some strong programs?  I know everyone prefers to
work on 9x9 since it's simpler, but 9x9 is not go, and is only used in the
real world to play the first couple of games with beginners to teach them
the rules :)  So how about giving 19x19 a try?

Valkyria is unfortunately too weak on 19x19 to be much of a challenge.  
I do not have access to good hardware and need to make it more scalable.
