Years ago (in 2001, 2002, 2003; before the Monte Carlo revolution) we had human go tournaments in Jena where some human+bot-constructions (3-Hirn and others) participated. Three details made it a success: * Participants declared before round 1 if they were willing to play against such beasts. * We had prizes (little books) for those who actually played against them. * For the local and regional press (and TV) "computer participation" was a highlight. They mainly reported on these experiments, but also about the tournament itself.
