Yes, I think so too. byo-yomi has something really odd, your clock can stand still even though you are using time. Unless you use too much, then suddenly you get penalized a whole chunk of time - otherwise none. This happens when the byo-yomi time is 60 seconds and as long as you use less than 60 seconds, it's as if you didn't use any time at all! How crazy is that? The difference between using 59.9 seconds and 60.1 seconds is about 300X greater than 60.1 - 59.9 - Don > Thanks a lot for the comments. > > igo > _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
