I hope you are aware that some strong MCTS programs use (at least) a factor hundred less playouts to break even with gnugo. In fact, to get to 50% they don't even need a tree at all... (so UCT is perhaps not really that relevant at these levels)
Yes -- as stated, this new method is not (yet?) competitive with cutting-edge MCTS (e.g., RAVE and fancy domain-specific playouts). Our claim is merely that it beats vanilla UCT.
