I watched MoGo playing with different rank of players. Usually 5d players has no problem winning. Starting from 4d begin to lose games. However, part of it is due to most players are not familar with 9x9 Go. Taking this into consideration I place MoGo at about amateur 2d. For professional players consider 9x9 is solved. This is all my opinion. Gnu plays at about 5k on 19x19. Let's place MoGo at 4k on 19x19. Besides the 32 times, it also need to make up the difference between 4k and 2d.
I just reported precise and objective experiments which may be interesting results for some. I have no opinion watching the program play, and no way to measure it precisely by subjective opinions. However, maybe it lacks some numbers in my report. On KGS, 9x9, MoGo uses about 40s per move, and on 19x19 (when rated 4kyu) used 15s per move. So it almost 3 times less and I reported that it should be 32 times more (so around 21 minutes per move). In the other way, these 15s per move would be 0.5s per move on 9x9. Maybe it does not continue to scale so well with time, I don't know. However with the times I tested, the scale with the board size is what I reported, and at least the number are precise (many dozen thousands of games). Sylvain
