Re: computer-go: Results on self play vs recorded games

[Don Dailey <drd@xxxxxxx>]

That shouldn't be a problem, if you know who played the games, you can
determine their ratings  by their 19x19 results and  use that to prune
the game collection.

Aren't their ratings listed anyway  when you play a game?  The ratings
may not be  based on 9x9 play  but I'm sure it correlates  well and is
directly available.

   Not sure, probably safer not to assume anything about the early IGS...
