Hi Will,
If I recall right, EPD2WB picks the move from the pv-lines given and not from
the move given by the program (at least the version I used).
In some situations Terra didn't show any line and just sent it's move.
Then EPD2WB couldn't see Terra's move and flagged it as wrong.
Maybe the same problem?
I don't remember how I solved it but the EPD2WB gave some possible ways of
doing things and it was solved.
