I agree 9x9 is wonderful, but a 19x19 for deep testing would be nice. To many variations and you risk the threat of diluting the engine pool.

Because the next step would be 15x15, and then 17x17, and when (if) we get to 19x19, there are so few competitors around that the whole tournament won't make any sense. I think it is better to stick to 9x9 as the "beginners" tournament, where it is easy to test new ideas in quick games, and 19x19 as the "serious" tournament where we can see how good computers are at playing the game like we humans do. Just my humble opinion, of course. - Heikki -- Heikki Levanto "In Murphy We Turst" heikki (at) lsd (dot) dk _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
