In the players meeting the following was agreed instead: 2 games 30 minutes if still draw 2 games 30 minutes if still draw toss for color, then 1 game 15 minutes (If I remember correctly) The idea is to avoid a medal being decided on SOS/SoDOS, which is particulaly tricky with so many new entrants which are hard to seed correctly. (In case of Leela, she had to play two programs early on which turned out to be the weakest ones, thus ruining the SOS) I'd have some preference for playing the decisive game with komi = 6.5, but apparently thats not possible on KGS. I think with komi = 7.5 white is scoring very high (too high?) in the top games. But the problem with the playoff games is the schedule right now... -- GCP _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
