I've not tried. Maybe it works? Who knows?

However, I believe you should reimplement the TD-algorithm.
Do the selfplay, but update only the crached and contact,
nets according to TD. (I think we should be satisfied with
the race net)

Joseph? What do you suggest for a TD training of a
pretrained net? Trial and error? Start with something high
like 1.0 and half this value when you see you're way to
high? Try different learning rates? Don't waste time with
to high learning rates.
