Since one stone is added to the board with each move, a repetition can only exist between two moves if exactly that number of stones was captured inbetween (+- pass moves) So you only have to check the positions in the game-stack where exactly the same number of black,white stones is on the board HTH, AvK _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
