#IdiotBot at KGS

#This plays mostly randomly using these rules:
#1) If can capture/extend group in atari: select one randomly
#2) If not, then select move that doesn't fill single space 'eye'
#3) If not, then pass
#basically, but for scoring and potentially few moves before it: Uses SimpleBot v0.1.X engine
#For handicap placement also using SimpleBot v0.1.X engine
