  Pachi was not running with 12 threads, but as specified in its info
on 2x Opteron 6134 (15 threads) with 64GiB RAM.

  Congratulations from me too! There is a huge gap between CrazyStone
and Pachi... In both of their matches, CrazyStone systematically wiped
pachi out in the first joseki played on the board. :-)

  Now it seems to me that this is related to the way playouts are done
and it will be difficult to improve with Mogo style (rule-based)
playouts above certain strength, without using larger patterns and next
move choice based on probability distribution. Currently, playing out
a simple joseki in a sensible way in simulations will just never happen.
This is a bit frustrating since all my attempts at successfully
implementing probdist-based playouts have failed so far, but I guess
I will just have to try again...

  Thank you. :-) I wish I was able to devote more time to Pachi, but
I hope I will be able to persist with at least a daily 1-3 hours of
Pachi care in the near future.
