\_ Well, if you want an example of a game where computers do poorly,
there is no need to invent a new one -- Wei Chi will do. But
thanks for the link -- looks interesting. My intuition about this
game, without looking into it carefully, is that one of the
superstrategies is dominant (it is very difficult to balance the
rules in such a way that you can have completely different looking
games, and have them all be reasonable strategies). -- ilyas |
