Oh now you tell me!!! Will gnugo play deterministically without the joseki? It's probably ok in either case - since Lazarus is MC it provides plenty of variety but I think I prefer seeing gnugo vary a little. By the way, I'm running everything at the default with GNU Go for this test. > Alain _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
