But i may have a chance against a top level pro, when he would have 2 second per move and i would have 10 minutes per move and if he was not allowed to think in my time (you'd have to find a way to distract him a lot, or he will do it anyway. As you suggested, we could force him to play 300 simultaneaous games where he has to make a lap in 10 minutes plus walking time). 2 seconds per move is an extreme time disadvantage which may weaken the pro by about 25 territory points (compared to his performance with 1 minute per move). Giving me my maximum time advantage of about 25 territory points (compared to my performance with 1 minute per move) at the same time would bring the pro whithin reach :) Dave _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
