RE: [computer-go] [Fwd: Announcement ICGA Events 2010]
Many Faces fully supports Japanese rules. When it plays on KGS it only uses Japanese rules. Internally I use Chinese rules, but I adjust the score at the end of the playouts depending on how many important passes have been played. Getting it right was a little tricky, but it's not a lot of code in the end. There was some discussion in the archives you can probably find. Remi recommended adjusting the komi by one point to account for who passes last, but I don't do that.
