Re: [Computer-go] TAAI 2012 Computer Go Tournaments

2012-10-07 Thread Jirong
Dear all,

 The 9x9 tournament has integer komi; that line is the same for all sizes.

 BTW I think the KGS superko rule shouldn't be a problem in this type of
 tournament (round-robin). When such a situation occurs the game simply ends
 due to a repetition / 'illegal' move. Since play doesn't have to continue
 the tournament organizers can just assign the correct result.
The superko will use Chinese rule on KGS.


 Any info on registration fee's, does one have to attend the congress, etc.?

There will be no registration fee, so there will be no trophy.
The tournament will play on KGS, so the operator doesn't need to
attend the congress.

We might add more pro go players to play with top 19x19 bots.

Best regards,
  Jirong

On September 5, two top Go players Lee Sedol and Gu Li played a game ended
in a quadruple ko, see

Perhaps Jirong was influenced by that interesting event. :)

I believe the KGS superko rules would not consider it as a draw. It is just 
like another superko.

Byo-yomi of 10 moves in 30 seconds, or an average of 3 seconds a move seems a 
bit extreme.
