In Response To: Backgame play decision (Stick)

Well, I actually think the CPU cycles I have already put into show something interesting. Namely, Gnubg severely under rates a play that several of our best players think is a good candidate, 23/22 8/5. Whether this play is technically best, or not, was not the objective of the post or rollout.

What I was hoping to find out was whether others thought the play I made merited Gnubg's whopper status (it doesn't) and whether the other bots (XG and Snowie) have the same problem seeing a reasonable move.

I would still like someone to stick the position into XG, in particular, and give us some feedback of what it thinks the best plays are.
