Some of Remi's features will score every move on the board.  When this
occurs, any scalar multiplication of those feature values will work.  This
seems to apply to both "distance to move" features and the MC Owner
feature.  When I get around to doing this (hopefully soon), I'll probably
leave out something to better pin the values down.  Essentially, omissions
are like forcing a value of 1.0.

As far as what the values should be in absolute terms, I can't yet comment
:(

The holidays are slowing me down.  I hope to be ready to compare notes in
January.  I'm really glad to see someone else doing this.  Any lessons
learned will be incredibly helpful...
