C[This is a "3-brain" match between 

White:   Saijo Masataka (8 pro dan)  

versus 

Black:   3-brain { ManyFaces / GoAhead / Participants of the EGC 2000 }

The rules are as follows: The Participants of the EGC 2000 have to
choose between two move candidates provided by the computer
programs ManyFaces 11 beta and GoAhead. If both programs agree, they 
have no choice at all. This idea was developed by Prof. Ingo Althoefer 
(operating ManyFaces). 

``M'' denotes ManyFace's moves 

``G'' denotes GoAhead's moves

``B'' means both programs agree

From my point of view, this was the decisive point of the game. 

GoAhead analyzed that the black LL corner may live by playing at a4
with the main variation "Ba4 We3 Ba2" (see variation a).
The move at e3 was also assigned a rather large value, because
GoAhead wanted to keep the big W group "weak" :-( 
Therefore, a4 and e3 went into further inspection in the following ...

Unfortunately, there was a bug in the life&death reading code! 
After putting (testwise) the Ba4 stone on the board, GoAhead redefined, 
by error, the life&death problem around the LL corner including the marked 
white and black stones. He could not read out this big problem. 
Consequently, he came to the wrong conclusion that Ba4 does not 
safe the stones under consideration.

After detecting and removing this bug in the definition of live&death 
problems, the new GoAhead program now plays Ba4 correctly, after 
which the game may continue.
