Hello,

I noticed that your game was played with Goban, and contains several 
undos. Although I've been unable to reproduce it, I strongly suspect 
that there must still be a bug in Goban that makes the state of the 
visible board and the state of the engine unsynchronized.

In any case, Goban fails to make clear the distinction between "undo" 
and "show previous move". Many users also think that "show next move" 
is the same as redo (there is no redo yet). All this will be changed in 
the next release.

Thanks for the report,


marco
