So that I can follow this discussion, how would be the "kgs level" of this player (it is the only level I have access to when looking at the results of game)? > Mogo would also have a memory problem.

For MoGo it is even worst. As all the games we have to play in are short games, we did not at all "optimize" the memory use, and in fact MoGo a lot more memory than necessary. I am not totally sure, but I think even 1 minute/move is already too much :). Of course, we can be more carefull with memory usage, but for the moment it is not the higher priority. > In fact, in honor of Chrilly's laws I will call this "Don's law". > "What really counts is how bad your bad moves are." I think this is a interesting point. I think I agree with that law :).
