Yes, that's my plan. I'm going to use fixed handicap and 1 stone compensation per handicap stone.
One question I have - is compensation normally given in the 1 stone case? Also, in the case of NO handicap, what komi is normally given in 19x19 Chinese? 6.5, 7.5 ??? - Don On Tue, 2006-12-26 at 21:42 +0100, nando wrote: > On 12/26/06, Don Dailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Yes, the answer is that there is no gtp command available that defines > > whether handicap stones are also compensated or by how much. > > Just like there's no GTP command to define the ruleset.
