Title: error with bot bot_clueless2005Fast

I "won" because it submitted an illegal move of not taking any steps. I'm not sure where to post this but I figure someone should know about it so it doesn't happen in a really important game.

Occasionally a bot will do this, due to some odd bug getting tripped. Nothing to really worry about, but sometimes rather than crashing the bot process will go into an infinite loop and the bot can't be started again. If you encounter this, just send a 'Problem' message through the Contact page http://arimaa.com/arimaa/contact/ and I'll kill the process.
