Hi Peter, From June 2005 thru May 2006 SlugGo took first place in all of the KGS competitions it entered, beating both commercial and research programs (May 2006 was 13x13 and 9x9; SlugGo was 1st on 13, 4th on 9, and all our tuning and optimizations were done on 19). By Dec 2006 the MC programs were stronger with long time limits and SlugGo came in 3rd: this was the time when MCTS passed conventional programming. Over this time period SlugGo had 72 G5 cores.
In Mar 2007 SlugGo came in 8th on 18 minute total time and MC was clearly stronger than anything conventional. Later in 2007 SlugGo beat an 8k human at the Cotsen Open running on an 8 core Xenon Mac Pro tower. I hope this helps.
