In which direction?

I don't make any tests for the first 20 moves. Thereafter, I resign if
   - I have no stones left on board
   - I have less than half the number of stones my opponent has
I also pass if my opponent has no stones left on board.

I should do these in the MC simulations too, but so far I have been
using Lew's libego unmodified.
