But As I played these programs they have a completely lost game. A 3-lib group against a group with so many liberties that i did not bother to count and it did not resign. Until I got tired of it and removed a liberty. After that it managed to simulate yje game as hopelessly lost and resigned . This was crazy stones if memeory serves. Similar thing have happened with other programs. It also leads them to losing semeais because take may take a move in other part of board when they cannot afford it. Assuming that group entangled in fight have 3 liberties or more. Which is one trick to win them "unfairly" -- Petri Pitkänen e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
