Congrats to ptolemycasio for the non-loss to TwixtBot!

I think TwixtBot still struggles with draw situations, on the rare occasions you can get it into one.

For example, |26.p17 would seem to be a win for TwixtBot: 27.r17 28.q14 or 27.q16 28.r18 29.v18 30.t18 31.t19 32.s20 33.u16 34.u21.

It would still seem to be a winning position for the Bot at |30.o18: 31.s18 32.p16 or 31.p16 32.s18.

It's almost a fluke that I was able to get a tie in this game. I think TwixtBot would have won if it had played the move you mentioned; does TwixtBot's inexplicable　move like 26.o17 show this Bot's limitations?

Even |34.p19 threatens to connect at N20 or N18. And it would even be a standard win, not just a PP win. Yes IMO this is a major flaw in the bot. But congratulations and welcome to the club!
