Re: [Computer-go] Hex is solved ?
Thanks. Generally is good if it's in a reputable journal or conference. Not everyone can do that, but if it's a new and interesting result of interest to more than 100 people, probably you can. There are peer-reviewed electronic journals, for instance. It's also unclear what the formal statement of the claim is. Having an efficient solution from an arbitrary board position for an arbitrary boardsize isn't credible, as John pointed out. (And a version of that result, which was published in acta informatica, isn't mentioned or referenced on the hex page mentioned as far as I can find - it would be a much bigger result than an *inefficient* algorithm, which is fairly easy.). s.

Re: [Computer-go] EGC2015 Events
Indeed. We (well, mainly I) thought that since Aya is running on a weaker computer, 5 stones might be about right, but now I'm a bit worried that I made the game too tough for white after all. Still, there's a big audience (surprised us a bit), maybe 150 people, and they seem to be enjoying it! On Wed, Jul 29, 2015 at 09:14:14PM +0200, Rémi Coulom wrote: Great!

Lee Hajin is also quite a bit weaker than Yoda Norimoto or Cho Chikun.
