Nick,

I just read your comments. I appreciate it. I knew the StoneGrid was the
weakest, but pleasantly surprised to see it managed to win one. I just
started to work on the 19x19 versions lately, previously it mostly was about
9x9.

It was early morning here when the tournament started, I did not stay up for
the tournament. I got up for a few minutes, and took a peek at the games. My
network was unstable, so I set it up to retry the kgsGtp once kgsGtp exits
for any reason. I guess the delay you were seeing were due to that reason.
By the way, my bot occasionally crashes due to some bug I could not
identify. It only occurs rarely, and un-reproducible. So I set it to restart
the bot once it received kgs-game-over. So the delay could be due to that
reason as well.

I did not realize there was a disagreement on the dead groups between
CzechBot and StoneGrid until I read your summary. I will  inspect the logs
to see whether it is on my side or CzechBot's side.

As for hardware, what you listed is right, it was running on L7700 core 2
duo.

Thanks again,

John Fan
