Less iterations MCTS sometimes beats more iterations #42

Closed danzel closed 6 years ago

With MoveOnly this is probably sensible, because sometimes it would find a move list that isn't possible.

But when running the full one that places pieces I don't think this should happen.

Running 1000v5000 Full MCTS, Tuneable2x2.Tuning1, 1 future placement with immediate expansion enabled (not committed yet).

43 Z ^^^ Not Equal ^^^ A Winner: True
6 Z ^^^ Not Equal ^^^ A Winner: True
Total Time 138435 / 674489
Total Wins 24 / 76

All others are draw or B win.

Is it the random tie breaking or something else?

Just luck? Don't see anything too bad in there, the first move that goes different is a nearly even choice
