Problem with Go scorer

Hello.
Nice effort to have a go scorer, but it still needs some improvements.

Look at this game:
http://www.ficgs.com/game_2093.html

After move 138, there isn't any ambiguity on the goban.
After removing dead groups,
q1 t3 k3 s5 t9 s10 q11 h11 t12 p12 h15 t16 f16
all the intersections are either black or white.
The scoring methods says:

* Scoring method : Horizontally
Black points : 103
White points : 244
Unknown points : 14

* Scoring method : Vertically
Black points : 103
White points : 268
Unknown points : -10

Rather strange. Scores should be the same. Where do those unknown points come from?

Thanks,

Claude

Problem with Go scorer

Hello Claude.

That's strange !? .. I just tried with the same groups :

q1 t3 k3 s5 t9 s10 q11 h11 t12 p12 h15 t16 f16


Here is the result :

* Scoring method : Horizontally
Black points : 103 White points : 254 Unknown points : 4

* Scoring method : Vertically
Black points : 103 White points : 258 Unknown points : 0

Could you try again (copy-pasting the groups) ? I can't find the problem...

Thanks in advance.

Too late...

I'm sorry, my opponent resigned. I cannot try it anymore. But it was maybe an error of my own.

Not too late

Hello Claude.

It's not too late... Actually you can score your game (finished or not) or any Go game played on the server ! ..

When you're on the viewer page (?page=viewer , in the link), just replace 'viewer' by 'score' ..
