Mathematics and Go (culminating in a discussion of coupon go) at:

Thanks a lot for pointing out this very interesting video. Seemingly, the

Thanks for the early report! (I was sorry not to see Fudo Go in the
tournament. Were you involved with any of the other teams?)
Here are the second day knockout tournament unofficial results. Any
mistakes are my own. Thanks to the organizers for the live screencast!

I watched the pro matches. It looked like a 4 dan beat Zen with 6 stones,
and a 9 dan beat KCC with 6 stones.

But are they the easiest to implement territory rules?

I think it was a single elimination, not a swiss tournament, and I think
many of the strong programs were in the same bracket. I think Many Faces
lost to KCC in an early round and wasn't paired against the other strong
programs. We'll have to wait for the full results to check.

Yes, single elimination, so only the top spot is reliable. The Crazy
Stone upset definitely changed the character of the final match.
Here are the main brackets (again, any mistakes are my own):
KCC Igo + Aya
Many Faces + boon
Zen + Kerberos
Erica + Kinoa Igo
Katsunari + rock
Kiseki +

David,
MFG lost by KCC at the second stage of the tournament,
and then won against Gallileo and Erica, obtaining the fifth position.
I admit that the most of the strong programs such as KCC, Aya, MFG, Zen
are assigned to the same right group, eliminating each other, and
in the left group,
I'd like to thank all of the people who organized the UEC tournament for
providing machines and operators to allow Many Faces and others to
participate. I'd like to suggest that the UEC organizers consider using a
Swiss tournament system in the future since it gives a more accurate
assessment of
