Subject: Is MiniMax the only way?

Author: Kristo Miettinen

Does anyone out there do anything other than minimax to pass position values
back to the root from the nodes?

For instance, I pass back Hi/Lo windows and statistical centroid/scatter
estimates, in order to bias toward "trying to get lucky" when behind and "more
than one way to win" when ahead.

Not that the results are worth bragging about yet...

Also: to the administrators, how do I update my email address?

Sine cera,

-Kristo.
