The way I read David's statement, he says "in fact plays better, even if not optimmaly, [even if not] for the right reasons, or even with[out] complete or correct information". So I'd say you two are agreeing :-)
I intended the sentence as above. At the time I wrote it there were lots of comments about how it could not work because it was not optimal, it was not moving for the right reasons, and about how incomplete the information was. My point was and remains: for whatever reason, and with whatever drawbacks, SlugGo plays 4 or 5 stones stronger than the base GNU Go code.

I'll answer Mark's email in more detail in another posting.


Cheers,
David
