Re: [Computer-go] Congratulations to AyaMC!

Thanks for the writeup Nick! It seems that I shouldn’t use pre-release versions of my bot for a tournament. ;) That was one horrible performance and I will have to spend some time figuring out where (and when) I messed up. Urban On Tue, Oct 11, 2016 at 12:14 AM, Nick Wedd

Thank you for pointing this out. There are no hidden tie-break shenanigans. There is a defect in the script I use to convert https://www.gokgs.com/tournEntrants.jsp?sort=s=1068 to a crosstable. I'll probably leave the script as it is, and put this right with manual edits. I think Robert Waite

Re: [computer-go] Congratulations to AyaMC and to StoneGrid!

Is it possible to show the board for the round 1 open division game? You refer specifically to a choice made at move 60... Also, the processor description for HBotSVN is incorrect. Rounds 1-6 were through a virtual machine on a box with a 2GHz Intel Core Duo.Rounds 7-9 was running native on

Re: [computer-go] Congratulations to AyaMC and to StoneGrid!

After I review the game, it is hard to say ManyFaces made a mistake at move 60 or around, since the white group at the lower left corner has a flaw. It is a sente for black to settle its F1 group. If white takes two steps to take the ko and A7 group, then black can settle down the F1 black group

Hi Jason, Internally, I have a constant that is a lag threshold. It is meant to represent an upper bound on how much lag exists. It worked fine I feel, the problem was more caused by Goanna's useless play towards the end and reluctance to pass. I think the solution I have in place now should be

Re: [computer-go] Congratulations to AyaMC, GNU, and MonteGNU!

I don't know if this is helpful, but it is fairly easy to do some adaptive timing to ensure not running out on time. Total external lag = (game time - time used internally) - time left Mean external lag = Total external lag / moves made by bot This lag can be used for creating a time buffer for

Open division round numbers appear out of sync. The quote from me uses round numbers that are one off from what's in the official report. Something should probably get fixed. Also, how does kicking work? A manual kill of a bot+kgsGtp and restarting by the user seems like it'd fix stuck bots.
