Title: Duplicated Moves
Post by lightvector on Sep 14^th, 2008, 2:02pm

I was using a large pile of game records for testing material, and discovered a few duplicated moves in some of the records when my program complained about them.
I believe the following games have one of their moves duplicated and included twice in the game record.

20004
20043
20310
20900
21086
21220
21306
21795
24059
25477

You can view them directly online at

Mostly this occurs at the end only, but also once or twice in the middle of the record. It looks very funny viewing the erroneous move in the online client - you get stuff like rabbits flying around and stepping on top of other pieces.

Also, game 32 has an illegal move around turn 15, where a frozen dog pushes a piece. Although this was probably a bug in the gameserver back then, rather than a recording error.

This probably isn't all of the games with duplicate moves. Anyone want to write a script to check out the rest? ::)

Hmm, I saw 20310 and 25990 had duplicate moves. I either missed or at the very least didn't report the others. I also found a few other odd things in the database when I was going through it. I think I reported most of them in this thread (http://arimaa.com/arimaa/forum/cgi/YaBB.cgi?board=devTalk;action=display;num=1137713238).
