One move left, and I believe it comes out to be 11-9 in my favor, if I'm not missing anything else...
Good game!

There's one more move that I see, but that still leaves it at 9-9... and since you'll place the last piece, you win!  A very good game!

Game 1. Selden wins 15-9
Game 2. Selden wins 12-9
Game 3. Selden wins 13-10.
Game 4. Juubi_No_Ookami wins 11-9.
Game 5. Juubi_No_Ookami wins 9-9.
Game 6. Selden(X) vs Juubi_No_Ookami(O), board ceeeff.

I have to admit, I was not prepared for the possibility of a tie game where the last piece was placed by one player on the other's "behalf". The current tournament rules say that the piece is treated as though it was played by the person who should have played it on their turn, meaning Juubi_No_Ookami is considered the winner. In a future revision of the tournament rules, I might have it explicitly say that the player who actually placed the last piece wins ties, even if it was on the other player's "behalf", to make the penalty for trying to pass a little greater, but it would be unfair to modify the rules midway through!

Start the new game, Selden!
