A long time ago there existed the ‘formal’ and the ‘open’ divisions. Because SlugGo used so much GNUGo code in a way such that SlugGo could offer several stones and still beat GNUGo, it was decided that whenever both bots were available for the tournament one would be in one division and the

That sounds reasonable to me. The downside for you Nick is of course that it's possible that there's bugs in the program and that it will just crash. ;) But at least against GnuGo that hasn't happened in a long time. And I guess once people complain that this setup is unfair towards their

Here's a suggestion. I would like to hear what Urban, and others, think about it. I enter GnuGo in these events to keep the numbers even. The operators of strong bots don't want to waste processor cycles proving that they can beat GnuGo, but they prefer it to a bye. Instead of my using GnuGo to

I’m considering entering with my bot but it’s rather weak (a lot weaker than GnuGo on 19x19) so I don’t know if it makes sense. Unless of course other weaker bots were willing to enter as well. If no one is interested in this (or if it’s even discouraged by Nick) then I would refrain from entering
