I put a bot on the public bot list this weekend and set gtp2ogs to reject games that weren’t 7.5 komi. I noticed I got a lot of repeat challenges with automatic komi. I talked with one of the players and realized that at /play, the “Computer” option doesn’t let you pick a komi.
Could we allow people to set custom komi when challenging bots from that menu? (Even better would be if there was some API for setting which komis a bot allowed and populating that menu with the allowed options.)
I don’t know if this helps, when I try to play a bot and I choose a setting the bot doesn’t allow (for example 4 hours in live when a bot only accepts up to 2 hours) I get a rejection and a pop-up saying why it was rejected and what the bot accepts.
I think it’s something the bot administrator controls, maybe @AdamR can guide you with that
