Hence in the normal situation komi must be 9 in order to make the 45/36 split on the board become jigo. At least in area scoring. A simple empirical thing is to check the results of CGOS 9x9 right now. All white vicories are even numbers + 1/2 i.e. 0.5, 2.5, 4.5, ... whereas all black wins are 1.5, 3.5, 5.5, .... Increasing komi with 1 does not change the result of any of these games.
All games that white won W+0.5 would reverse to B+0.5 if you lowered the komi by 1 pt. Christoph _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
