Subject: Contempt factor

Author: Benny Antonsson

Hi !

I have a constant value called DRAW_VALUE = 0.
This constant is used in e.g. the evaluation function, if the position is
a known draw, or in the serach if the position is a stalemate and so on.

My question is: Can I change this constant to say -30 or something like that,
and this will work as a contempt factor... or are there things I'm missing here
?
