Yesterday I modified Many Faces to play Frisbee go an played a few games with some other people at the Beijing Computer go tournament. It's a very strange game. If there is interest I can make an installer and make it available for free. Josef Moudrik is also writing a program. David

I was thinking about the ko rule for frisbee ko, and realised it leads to problems. 1. Black takes a ko, White tries to make a ko threat, but accidentally retakes the ko. What should happen?
This was already covered by having any illegal frisbee landing revert to a pass. Btw, it's impossible to make a ko threat neighbouring a ko retake, as all those points are occupied:(
2. Black takes a ko. White tries to make a ko threat, but fails to make a valid move. Black tries to make connect the ko, but fails to make a valid move. May White now (try to) retake the ko?
Being a superko fan myself, the answer is clear: not if it repeats the position. regards, -John _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@computer-go.org http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
