Self-playing bug

I was checking to see if my brother had joined, just by using my last name to invite, and it came up asking me to invite myself. Naturally, I accepted.

Self-playing produces a funny bug(s), in which one side moves continually. See for yourself:

This is true for both chess and go, and I assume most games here. (Hopefully this doesn't affect ratings.) Funniest move of course is pawn takes king, promotes, and the game continues!

Bwahahaha

That's pretty funny :)

It won't affect ratings, only tournament games affect ratings, games from invite of from the waiting room don't.

that is very weird! are we seeing some of artificial intelligence from LG? is it learning the games on its own? is it sentient? if so, it is viscious. it decimated black rather efficiently! i'm a little scared...

i don't understand it, some way of cheating?

No, it isn't cheating. It's just what happens when you try to play against yourself. Invite yourself to a game and see what happens!
