Sure, "compression" can be observed but I don't believe it's minor. The rating of mogo-big-4c-nb-32 is 2465 now (which could decrease more if allowed resign) while it had been over 2500 for months. This is one example and another is that the winning rate against mogo-big-4c-nb-32 of Salat is 50% (19/38) but its rating is only 2341, which should be over 2400 in former days, I believe. -Hideki >The next time I run the all time rating list, I will see what happens >if I ignore kartoffel's games - just to see if this has much of an >impact. > >- Don > > > > >Hideki Kato wrote: >> I'm afraid that kartoffel may cause some confusion on the ratings. >> I've set mogo-big-4c-nb-32 never resign but this will help little. >> >> I'd like to prefer every program never resign until the author of >> kartoffel fix the bug to prevent the ratings being corrupted. >> >> -Hideki >> >> John Fan: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> >>> Seems it has a serious bug on end game against weak bots.
