In Response To: American football analogy? (Chuck Bower)

"I don't see how making one 0.1 error with the cube on 4 is necessarily better than making two 0.1 errors in two separate games, each with the cube on 2. "

An error as defined by a bot using a MET(As an example) that doesn't take any account any skill differential. It may be an Error by a standard measure of a bot, but is it truly an error? The bot could be the one in error assessing the error because it doesn't know any better.

There are days where I yearn to see Zbot become a commercial product. I was always curious whether a bot that could use different personalities could be a game changer in the way we currently perceive the game.
