Hi all,
 
For CGOS 19x19 I prefer a short time control (10min/game) because:
 
1) More quickly a more accurate rating can be established.
    I do think that the rating differences inbetween programs due
    to a shorter time setting do not change significantly (more
    than a few stones), while the rating difference of a newer
    program version (an update) within the pool can be shown with
    a better accuracy, due to the more games that will be played.
 
2) I am using my (single cpu) computer also for other things, and
    if I want to stop the cgos calculations I don't want to wait
    up to one hour before I can use it again.
    (It also takes longer before the first game starts).
 
Just my opinion here.
 
I noticed on cgos 19x19 that when crazystone stopped 
playing, it's name was not displayed on the cgos list 
anymore.
What's is the cause of this?
 
Edward.
