1. Not necessarily a bug. Just slow software. 2. Not a bug. 3. A real stretch to call this a bug. 4. Seems lika a real bug without researching more. 5. Not a bug.

I'm not exactly sure I'd call 4 a feature though either -- just dumb luck.

And from the reading, it sounds like this was intentional behavior: Make a random move if there is no clear good move.

4. absolutely does not sound like a bug at all. Making a random move if you don't know what to do is the obvious right thing to do.
