• Minor suggestions for XG

    From pepstein5@gmail.com@21:1/5 to All on Sun Sep 19 10:59:25 2021
    XG's resignation behaviour is very strange. It sometimes resigns
    a single game when it has a > 0 chance of saving the game and
    it sometimes fails to resign when its chance is zero. And, as far as I
    can tell (AFAIK), it never resigns gammons or backgammons.
    My suggestion is that the resignation algo is improved a bit.
    I think this may help commercially -- I know that is the main consideration.

    Another problem is that when I click on the cube tab, the verdict
    is sometimes incompletely specified. It says "No Redouble/ Beaver"
    but not whether the beaver should be dropped or taken.
    I would prefer it if beavers were given as "No Redouble/ Beaver/ Take"
    or "No Redouble/ Beaver/ Drop" although that can admittedly be
    read off the stats.
