original eye method = 407 ELO
alt eye method #1   = 583 ELO
alt eye method #2   = 518 ELO

While both alternate methods are probably better than the original, I'm not
convinced there's a significant difference between the two alternate
methods.  The cross-tables for both are fairly close and could be luck of
the draw (and even which weak bots were on at the time).  I put raw numbers
below.  Since I made one other change when doing the alt eye method, I
should rerun the original with that other change as well (how I end random
playouts and score them to allow for other eye definitions).

While I think the alternate eye definitions helped, I don't think they
accounted for more than 100-200 ELO

vs ego110_allfirst
orig= 33/46 = 71%
#1 =  17/20 = 85%
#2 =  16/18 = 89%

vs gotraxx-1.4.2a
orig=N/A
#1 = 2/8   = 25%
#2 = 3/19 = 16%
