Perception NR : OK! Let's start! :-) Perception NR : Is GoLife running and ready to begin? Golife NR : Let's see how many bugs there are in our programs, shall we? Perception NR : OK. :-) Perception NR : My program has no bugs...just bad features. Golife NR : :) Golife NR : I see I can use the line under the board to say things. Good Perception NR : Yes. Perception NR : If you're observing then typing in this box becomes a kibitvz instead of a "say" ] ;W[ec]WL[776]C[ Golife NR : Here we go Perception NR : :-) Perception NR : I'm very excited to see what happens Perception NR : Hope perception doesn't play E8 ] ;B[dd]BL[873]C[ Perception NR : It loves to play under stones on the 3rd line Perception NR : Yay! Golife NR : Me too. As I said, this version is not very diferent from the first, but it's never been thouroughly tested Golife NR : Can i get more lines to show in the window? Perception NR : Yes. Golife NR : How? Perception NR : Resize the window by making it taller Golife NR : Ohh. :) Perception NR : :-) ] ;W[dc]WL[697] ;B[fc]BL[851] ;W[fd]WL[659] ;B[cg]BL[799]C[ Golife NR : Well, it's a start... Perception NR : Yup...F7 wasn't real brilliant, but it could have been worse. ] ;W[cd]WL[622]C[ Golife NR : And it will be :-D Perception NR : :-) For some reason this program loves to put itself into atari when a tense situation arises ] ;B[bc]BL[747]C[ Golife NR : Ah-- I think I recogninze that feature. Perception NR : I really can't for the life of me figures out why it does this, but it does it pretty often Perception NR : We'll see if it happens this game. :-) Golife NR : If your program doesnt do it, mine will ] ;W[cf]WL[559] ;B[be]BL[691]C[ Golife NR : I reckon you play a lot you self, right? (Go, that is) ] ;W[bd]WL[522]C[ Perception NR : About 3 or 4 times a week. How about yourself? Golife NR : At least used to play that much. Maybe once a week now. Goes up and down, I guess. Perception NR : How strong are you? I'm about 5K by AGA ratings ] ;B[gd]BL[631]C[ Golife NR : I'm about the same. Maybe 4k AGA standard, or 7k on the IGS. Perception NR : I'm 19k* on IGS. :-( Golife NR : This is getting exciting Perception NR : But it's been a long time since I played here. Perception NR : Yes. G6 wasn't too bad. Perception NR : GoLife seems to play a lot more solidly than perception does. Golife NR : But thats strange -- IGS always have been completely off on lower ratings. Have you tried opening a new account at 7k? ] ;W[ge]WL[434]C[ Perception NR : No. I don't play here enough for it to matter much to me. Golife NR : Yeah -- that was really solid! :) Perception NR : :-) Let's see if perception knows how to take advantage of this ] ;B[ed]BL[554]C[ Perception NR : D'oh! F5 was much better! Golife NR : hmmm Golife NR : As we say in swedish 'lika goda kalsupare' ] ;W[fe]WL[382]C[ Perception NR : ??? What does that mean? Golife NR : Just as bad, so to speak. Perception NR : Ah. Golife NR : I dont know the direct translation. One of the words is a vegetable i dont know the name of. ] ;B[de]BL[473]C[ Golife NR : Tricky move Perception NR : Neat ] ;W[ef]WL[342] ;B[ce]BL[383]C[ Perception NR : Yay! Golife NR : :) Perception NR : You know, perception really has no idea about eyes so it rarely make good living groups. ] ;W[gg]WL[303]C[ Perception NR : Does golife know about eyes? Golife NR : Both yes and no. I've switched that part off, I believe :). Perception NR : OK. Perception NR : I think I'll add a pattern matcher next Perception NR : And have it look for eyes in groups Perception NR : It should make things better Golife NR : Well, It knows when it has two eyes, but it doesnt perform any Tsumego search Perception NR : OK. Perception doesn't know when it has two eyes. ] ;B[eg]BL[306]C[ Perception NR : It calculated % alive to be "1.0 - 1.0 / liberties" ] ;W[dg]WL[256]C[ Perception NR : Which isn't always very accurate Golife NR : uhh... Perception NR : Let's see if b d4... Perception NR : Not sure if it will see this, but it might. Golife NR : I use something similar in between ] ;B[he]BL[156]C[ Perception NR : WHAT??? Golife NR : The people in the pressroom was startled by his next move... Perception NR : :-) ] ;W[bg]WL[213] ;B[gf]BL[154]C[ Golife NR : And how about that... Perception NR : Yay! :-) Perception NR : Seems like both programs make enough blunders, game is completely up in the air. :-) Golife NR : This is not Go, this is roulette :) ] ;W[ch]WL[152] ;B[cc]BL[150]C[ Perception NR : Perceptios is short on time, it is only doing a 1 ply global search Perception NR : Often it plays better that way than with 2 ply global search Perception NR : Don't ask me why Golife NR : How many moves are there left? Perception NR : Moves left? Golife NR : We're not in byo yomi yet, sorry ] ;W[ad]WL[85] ;B[eb]BL[145]C[ Perception NR : The "nn:nn/-" will be "nn:nn/12" or whatever when you are in byo-yomi Golife NR : Really great move. I must get that new program working soon... Golife NR : ok Perception NR : E8 was very good Perception NR : My tactical search can do great things as long as the total solution can be read out ] ;W[db]WL[20] ;B[fb]BL[140]C[ Golife NR : My program knows about ladders, but it doesnt seem to care too much :( Perception NR : :-) Perception can read all ladders perfectly Perception NR : As long as there is 1 liberty left in a group Perception NR : The search will not terminate Golife NR : is entering byo-yomi ] ;W[ee]WL[868] ;B[df]BL[137]C[ Golife NR : My program does the same. It just doesn't make the right decisions from that data. Perception NR : OK. Golife NR : I think my first version played better than this one. Or maybe I just want that to be true... Perception NR : Maybe. From some of your games it did look pretty good. Perception NR : I think I'll put a binary on my web site after this Golife NR : I think I'll resign for it now, if that's ok. I cant bare watching this. Perception NR : OK. Golife NR : resign Golife NR : ooops Perception NR : You have to type it in the other window ]; AW[ad][bd][bg][cd][cf][ch][db][dc][dg][ec][gg] AB[bc][be][cc][ce][dd][de][df][eb][ed][eg][fb][fc][ff][gd][gf][he] )
