[gnugo-devel] super-ko violation

[Matthias Krings]

Hi gnugo-team,

I have another, quite strange super-ko violation, which occured in a 
game played by my bot on KGS. The game is attached.

The last move made by gnugo was A3, after the end of the attached game. 
This might violate super ko (I'm not sure, because the same position at 
move 248 has a different relative number of prisoners). Anyway, the last 
20 or so moves by gnugo are all quite strange. To take just one example: 
248 should have been a dame (they count, because the game was played 
with AGA-rules). The lower left corner is dead as it stands. But _if_ a 
move is played in that corner, A5 would be obviously better than A2. 
After that, all the super-ko aji would have been gone.

Matthias
