Yes, it would be good to put the Japanese scoring to the test and nothing does this better than a tournament.

Re: [Computer-go] Japanese rules in KGS tournaments
If my version of the gtp protocol is the latest, there is no command for scoring (it is in the missing feature section). Should we try to extend the specification?

Re: [Computer-go] Japanese rules in KGS tournaments
A command something like rule_set japanese might be good. Other rule sets such as Ing and AGA are also popular, see http://senseis.xmp.net/?RulesOfGo Aja 2013/2/23 ds d...@physik.de If my version of the gtp protocol is the latest, there is no command for scoring (it is in the missing feature section).
