[gnugo-devel] GNU Go 3.2 Problem

[Rodney Topor]

I'm not a developer, or even a strong player, so I can't offer a 
diagnosis or correction, but in a game I just played against GNU Go 
3.2 on Goban, it made a terrible - apparently easily avoidable - 
mistake.  I'm sending you the game record as an attachment in case 
you wish to diagnose and correct the error.  The final error was that 
GNU Go did _not_ play H9 on move 54, and thereby lost 12 stones and 
the game.  In fact, GNU Go could have saved this large group by 
playing C9 or G9 or H9 at any earlier stage but chose not to, despite 
the fact that I wasn't making any particularly strong threats.

(Otherwise, congratulations on making available a wonderful program.)
