I think the "true" komi must be an even number. For CGOS, the question is what is the "best" komi since drawn games are simply not allowed.
I don't bet, but if I did, I would bet that it's 7 or 8, and I'm fairly certain that with best play the game would end with 7 extra points for black. I think this was discussed at great length 2 or 3 years ago. - Don > > Christoph > > _______________________________________________ > computer-go mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/ > _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
