In European tournaments, I have been told, when a group is claimed by
one player to be a seki, and by the other player to be dead, the
player who claims it is dead will receive one stone, as a prisoner,
from his stubborn opponent foreach stone he plays in his own would-be-
territory.
If dame was filled, I see no reason why this would not be possible to
implement as a cleanup phase on go-servers, like the one used for new
zealand and chinese rules. Do you? It would be the human-adaption of
the play-it-out-then-restore-and-count-again, that David mentioned.

people here. Did I overlook something?

Suppose, under Japanese rules, I throw a (hopeless) stone into your
territory. I keep passing until you've actually removed it (playing
four stones inside your own territory, thus losing a net three
points). If you try to pass as well, I stubbornly insist that the
stone is alive, thus restarting the game.
What prevents this sort of abuse? Is this one of those cases where
the tournament director has to adjudicate?
(This is not a problem under Chinese or AGA rules.)
