Programs with fixed trials appear to be common. There is no reason to believe that they will complete faster games. Also, I collect a lot of data for each game played. I really do not want to be forced to distinguish all of that data by time control. So, please: no mandatory time controls. That will have unintended side-effects. Please don't do anything that decreases the frequency of games in order to accommodate programs that want to play on multiple venues. Keep venues strictly separate. Programs that want to play on multiple venues can just log in multiple times. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
