[computer-go] Slow KGS computer Go Tournament

[Don Dailey]

William,

One question - 

  My opponent in the first round somehow got disconnected.  A few
minutes later
  botnoid was "kicked" from the game.  

  What would happen if my opponent came back?   Would botnoid
automatically
  rejoin the game or would it now be botnoid that would lose on time?

There was a feeling that this might not be handled correctly so I 
played it safe by writing a script to observe the log file and 
disconnect/reconnect if it was kicked due to an absent tournament
opponent. 

- Don
