As suggested, I'd like to rapidly browse a large number of games between strong players. Doing so on LG is slow. If such are available anywhere in a single download / by request, I'd be grateful. And I still haven't found an sgf viewer/editor I'm happy with.
Request: for strong bot authors, if the software is to remain private, a collection of 50+ self-play games for study would still be greatly appreciated.
They're not really “downloadable”, but if you'd like to quickly browse a large number of well played games, you can look at my opening move database of games played at lg. Click on a move to see the follow-ups.
Filtering on rating can be problematic, because player ratings change with time. For example shalev's rating has dropped below 1500, but he's obviously a great player. I'm not aware of any way to get historical rating data either (besides parsing those rating charts? But that sounds like a pain…). Filtering on date (or rather, game number) would be pretty straightforward.
The site is static (including all the game data) and the code isn't obfuscated at all if you want to just download it and play around.
