Also, Josh is not the top-scorer for this repository:

Trololo. What is this anyway? Also, your bajillion line SVGs totally shouldn't count.

nelfin commented 12 years ago

Also, you'll have to take it up with GitHub themselves: it's based off of this

They totally count! I generated them with my own code!

nelfin commented 12 years ago

Well I guess you won't mind me re-doing the whole opening book then. I hadn't noticed, but we always play White first, instead of Black like in normal Othello (which the book was written for, so all the moves are around the wrong way)

CapnP commented 12 years ago

Oh snap, good noticing. That could have been bad.

nelfin commented 12 years ago

Nah, it just meant that we never played anything out of the book. I'm still working on this stuff, and I was wondering why it wasn't using the book at all

jpnelson commented 12 years ago

Do you mean MetaPlayer? When I tried it I thought it was using the opening book

jpnelson commented 12 years ago

Another thing is there isn't really a way to decide which opening to choose. It just takes the first every time currently. Maybe we could test the openings and record their W/L? Probably too much work for now though

nelfin commented 12 years ago

@cyberdash: It wasn't using the opening book at all. It was always returning NO_MOVE.

nelfin commented 12 years ago

My original plan was to just run a depth 10 or 12 negamax from the end states of the book (probably using just LegalMoves, bitches love mobility in the mid-game) and minimax the values up.

nelfin commented 12 years ago

Yo, I fixed it by rotating the whole book.

Top notch
