Go up one level in this thread


Misere games are games where the winning condition becomes the losing one. Or
more broadly when the purpose is to lose the possibility to make a legal move.
The last loose definition makes nullmove impossible. I.e. you can not assume you
have already won.
 A question for you. How the heck do you use nullmove in Go? Passing is a move
AFAIK. I can imagine algorithms that decide that not making a move is the best
option based on a less than full depth search. But that would he closer to B*
than nullmove.
