Mogobot1 and mogobot2 are rated 2k and 3k, respectively, on KGS. CrazyStone is rated 2k. All of these numbers are with moderate time controls (not the 15 minute sudden death time controls that became a subject of controversy). There was also KCConGui, running KCC Igo, that played for a while on KGS. I don't know whether it was an official bot, or whether its departure had anything to do with its lopsided losing record against CrazyStone. The KCConGui page notes that KCC Igo won the Gifu Challenge four years in a row, most recently against sparse competition, but the best claim to the computer go throne belongs to Steenvreter, for edging out Mogo and CrazyStone in the stronger ICGA tournament. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
