But just because a rule of thumb holds for Chess doesn't mean it does for Go. Of course I could be wrong, but I was just trying to introduce reasonable doubt, since Don always seems so sure of himself ;-)
If I may venture trying to rephrase your arguments, do you mean that since difficulty grows exponentially there may be a qualitative leap between chess and go? Comparing chess and go is difficult, but I think this effect can be seen between 9x9 and 19x19 go too: the two games are quite different, because in 9x9 there is practically no strategic element and this element brings a whole new dimension to the game. Or did I misunderstand you? best regards, Vlad _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
