Re: [computer-go] KGS Tournaments: Format

Yes, it would be quite possible to add this information to the game
description. But I have noticed that people don't really care about
the game description when challenging bots, they still take black
although one explicitly writes "I'm a very weak bot, give me 4
stones." or something like that...but I guess that's mostly their
problem. :)

Speaking of ranks, what is the latest news on the nngs server? I
haven't tried it yet...is it straightforward to use with GTP support?
