Hi Don,

I'd bet on Mogo. In case nobody noticed, Crazy Stone won a match against KCC Igo this summer, with 15 wins and 4 losses. The match was organized by Hiroshi Yamashita. The games can be found in the KGS archives.

If I remember correctly, Many Faces is a global searcher. Maybe KCC is too. It seems to me that global searchers have a lot of difficulty against Monte-Carlo search. That is the impression I got when watching Crazy Stone play against the experimental version of Many Faces. The real Many Faces would have to be tremendously stronger in order to have a chance against Mogo or Crazy Stone.

I'd connect Crazy Stone to CGOS if Many Faces is there.
