What is the point? The bot will resign on it's next roll. My question is
why should it matter whether it resigned on the current roll or the next
one. Both ways end up the same. One has one more roll by the human.
WHat value would it be to modify the bot to resign on roll or wait for
the next. The value IMHO just isn;t there to be bothered. Ultimately it
is going to be the same result.
I ask you what value is gained in reality either way. I can not think of
any argument to persue something that has no value.
If I were Russ, I wouldn't be bothering with a very low priority 5 like
this. If someone want stop code it they can waste their time. I think
Russ and Ubuntu folks should fix the big gaping Priority one
catastrophic bug that really should have GNUBG pulled from that platform
until fixed. That bug is the one that causes the mouse to freeze on that
platform (Ubuntu 11.04+).
Right now, the bug in question is so catastrophic that it renders our
product useless on Ubuntu if someone wants to view the analysis from the
move list.
The bug doesn't exist on the current main Debian Wheezy or Sid releases.
If it were me, I would pull GNUBG from Ubuntu until it is resolved.
