Another aspect to consider in the "is 'deepmind' AlphaGo" discussion are the time settings played in games on Tygem. If it's believed that 'deepmind' is weaker than AlphaGo, it could be a factor.
On a different thread 'seigenblues' suggested that AlphaGo plays better with more thinking time. If that is true, then we might expect 'deepmind' to have weaker play on Tygem.

Unless he's gotten stronger recently, it's fairly safe to say he is European 5d level. I (Euro 4d) have played him twice and lost twice, the first was a fairly sensible game, slightly losing until I misread some important fight, the 2nd was just after I lost the first British Championship game so I was in a frustrated mood and played crazily and we both had chances to win, he missed a few tesujis I found but then I got angry and went bonkers kamikaze style. You can see him winning and losing to 5ds but mostly losing to 6ds here:

Does anyone know how to download someone else's games off Tygem? While I can look at such games, the save button doesn't seem to work in the English client. (I don't care about format, gib to sgf is easy.)
