I'm curious about the full width depth and the principal variation depth to
compare UCT wilth alpha-beta.
The comparison is not so easy to do I think, because using MC as an
evaluation
function for alpha beta, you have to do several simulations for one
evaluation and
correct. We have British Summer Time (GMT+1) from Spring to Autumn (Fall),
so the Mac widget probably adjusts for that.

Because I am using Chinese rules, and they specify komi of 7.5 points.

The Cotsen Open has a cash prize for the best computer program,
which I felt somewhat guilty accepting after loosing all games due
to the bug, but SlugGo was the only program entered this year, and
the cash did help to offset the cost of renting the wheelchair van
