Why? Because I could get easily some extra points by beating non-learning
programs several times?
I don't consider book learning to be very smart. So I have done the smallest
book learning I could. I don't want my program to be called stupid so I don't
repeat lost games.
I think customers will appreciate this. Tiger assumes they are not stupid and
won't play a game they have lost already. So what's the point in trying to do
it?
But Tiger knows customers are nasty sometimes and will certainly try to beat him
twice in the same way! :)
BTW I think that in Auto232 the real mistake is to waste time trying to get
points unfairly by writting an agressive book learner. This time would be better
used in improving the engine.
