Gostar and Yogo were also classical on 19x19. Yogo was MCTS on 9x9. I don't know about Break. Gostar's author said he will now rewrite to use MCTS.
It is very clear to me that MCTS is very well suited to computer go. It has some real issues though, so I think the best approach is MCTS that uses tradition program knowledge (like Many Faces).

Congrats to all! This is another strong validation of the scalability of Monte Carlo search. Were there any classical programs competing besides Katsunari? Before the conference closes, it would be interesting to play the field with GNU Go, to see where it would fall in the lineup if it had competed this year as a measure of recent progress.
