OK, everyone running a GnuGo anchor needs to know this.
Let's make the default level be level 8 - since we want
to be able to very comfortably run this on slow hardware.
So let's make this the command for gnugo:
gnugo --mode gtp
--score aftermath
--capture-all-dead
--min-level 8
--max-level 8
--chinese-rules
--positional-superko
