In Response To: Strange XG Evaluation (misja)

I think this sort of thing is not limited to XG. It has long been a hallmark of a bot that it makes these bizarro board-shuffling plays. Check out this example of a wacko GNU play.

At least with XG, though, I've found that it usually comes to its senses (mostly, anyway) on 4-ply evaluation.
