You would win every game but it would be fun to watch. Would you set up Mogo to run on KGS so we could watch all the games and of course never take back a move? Are you actually willing to wait for 20 minutes per move and are you saying you will limit your own thinking time? (Humans improve more with extra thinking time than computers do, every computer chess programmer knows this - it's all about the error rate stuff I talked about.) Again, even if you do all those things I think you would win all the games - but it would still be fun to see if you feel any resistance whatsoever. - Don > regards, > -John > > > > > _______________________________________________ > computer-go mailing list > computer-go@computer-go.org > http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/ _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
