My original question was meant for non-resigning bots. The observation:
Also a losing bot starts to play lazy towards the end. And the question
is:
To which results do laziness of the winning bot AND laziness
of the losing bot together lead typically?
Ingo.
A losing bot is never lazy. It can get despondent though. :-)
The most interesting result is that a slight bonus on higher margins
can improve the success rate, even though it might slightly reduce the
bots internal winrate. I would venture the hypothesis, that increasing
the margin from 0.5 to 1.5 is worth the greatest winrate "investment"
by far. Messing up the final ko is always a possibility.
Assuming Chinese rules:
The only way to increase the margin by one point is to create or remove
an odd seki from the board. Winning a ko instead of losing it will
increase the winning margin by two points.
