Yup, I can verify that my half-baked plan didn't work. If you use
"most wins" to choose moves during playouts, once you have a win, you
will never change your mind, because each playout will either
increment that move (and maybe some others) or increment nothing
(because it's a losing playout).
So: Pebbles only for "actual" moves, not playout moves.

The "Pebbles rule" (I should have published something better than this
first, so that 'Pebbles Rule' could refer to something really cool)
concerns solely the question of which move to select when your
search is over. The conventional choice is to play the move that has
the most *trials*, and Pebbles version is to play the move that has
the most *wins*.
