I think you mean Edmonton, without the second d.

I don't understand this test:

| # A19 produces seki
| loadsgf games/century21-2002/goint-gnugo.sgf 237
| 90 gg_genmove black
| #? [A19]

After black A19 white plays A17 and kills unconditionally. If black
continues with B19, C17, or A16 there's a dead shape and if A18 or
tenuki, white plays B19 and wins the semeai.

As far as I can see, black can do no better in the original position
than play B19 or A17 and get seki or ko. I'm not sure whether either
of those two is better than the other, though.
