Pure random-MC playout has the great advantage of being totally "neutral" and unbiased. If you use gnugo for playout, as it has "systematical errors" (like wrong estimation of life and death for groups surrounded at some distance) your playout will be biased toward a wrong solution, far from perfect. I think Sluggo showed this very clearly. Alain _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
