[Computer-go] Beating old ManyFaces at 29 handicap stones

[Hiroshi Yamashita]

Thanks!

Aya tried 6 games. Aya uses 2 cores, 10sec/move.
I think 14 handicaps is best for Aya.

handicaps
 5  win
11  win
 9  win
16  loss
14  loss
14  win

Some small problem.
I don't know how to select B, and set 9 handicap on KgsGtp.
So I just passed 14 times in 14 hadicaps game, but KGS set komi to 6.5,
 and does not minus handicaps stones in final result.

My config file is like this.

mfgo1998 is up on kgs if anyone wants to try it.  To get a big handicap, set
up a 9 stone game and pass until you get up to 29 stones in the same pattern
as Martin's game.
