All my wins against ManyFaces tend to be swindles. It clearly better at certain things than I am, but when big groups get cut off and eyeless I can win fights where I should lose. I could easily find you a game where I won by winning a huge semeai where MFOG could have just by playing it out or by making eye/eyes earlier. So you don't need even many confusing fights. One big one will do. Well and in my cases a bit of luck as well. Petri 2010/11/13 terry mcintyre <[email protected]> This is a curious game - a 3 stone game betwixt ManyFaces and a 2 kyu player. It looks to my eye as if MFGO was well ahead in the middle game, yet managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Black has many unsettled groups; usually a stronger player causes much grief in situations like this, but black managed to turn around and swallow up not one but several white groups. Most interesting. I think this confirms an earlier thread - when there are several semeai on the board, MCT-based strategies get into difficulties. I think strong human players tend to have a better grasp of "this particular fight is settled, no need to study it further until a liberty is removed (in which case respond now!); let's focus on this other fight instead . . ." _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://dvandva.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
