Just curious: why don't you convert the DAG into patterns at program
initialization?

I think David makes clear that his large patterns apply only to the UCT
process, and
then only after a significant number of trials are reached. I gather that

This is somewhat similar in MoGo, with N=5 and K=10 nearly (I say
"nearly" because we have two levels of go expertise, the second being
much more expensive and not yet operationel, so we have in fact K1 and
K2).

Orego has been doing well in 9x9 games on KGS, using the fast time
controls of this weekend's upcoming tournament. I even improved the
endgame behavior a bit: Orego will pass if (a) the opponent has passed
first, and (b) after removing Orego's dead stones, but not the
opponent's, Orego stil
Is there no way for the bot to dispute the other player's decision?
I recall something of the sort in human-to-human play -- both have to agree
before the scoring phase.
I do not know whether the KGS API works the same way.

This comes up from time to time on this list. Rated games require the
human to accept what the bot says (but can undo to continue play). In
free games the bots must accept what the human says.

Pretty close. Rave is accumulated for every trial (I don't want to throw
away useful information). N depends on the board size. K > N and the ratio
is not fixed. I use progressive widening, and I'm curious what the widening
formula is for other programs, or how slowly it increases.

I created the joseki database for the DOS program when typical computers had
1 MByte of memory. It's stored in a highly compressed format using 10 bits
