[computer-go] Congratulations to Crazy Stone!

[Jason House]

Open Division Round 1
 - You mention AyaBot2 joining it's game with CrazyStone.  That should be
HBotSVN.
 - "Printing name and version number" happens when the bot crashes, kgsGtp
terminates, and a script automatically reconnects the bot, and the cycle
repeats.  It may be better to say that the SimonBot engine kept crashing
when trying to score the game?

Open Division Round 5
 - I personally thought the IdiotBot/HBotSVN game had an interesting end
position.  Despite the extreme weakness of HBotSVN (simply using the UCB
algorithm), the position was problematic for several monte carlo engines.
HBotSVN thought it had a 100% chance of victory though the bulk of the end
of the game because the random playouts assumed idiotbot would fill one of
its eyes.

Also, HB04 does not show up in the names of programs page.  Of course, the
housebot logins are piling up:
HouseBot: Intended for stable version of HouseBot.  It's the only ranked
account.
HB04 - Very old HouseBot 0.4 - Extremely fast play based on 1-ply move
heuristics
HB05 - HouseBot 0.5 - Global alpha-beta search
HBotSVN - Latest and greatest version of HouseBot, generally experimental.
Once upon a time, it was version 0.5.  In this last tournament, it was
version 0.6.
