internals

following the BPGN convention:

• the letters 'A' and 'B' refer to boards

• we arrange players and teams like this:

         BlackA 'a'                WhiteB 'B'
    +---------------+         +---------------+
    |               |         |               |
    |    Board A    |         |    Board B    |
    |               |         |               |
    +---------------+         +---------------+
         WhiteA 'A'                BlackB 'b'
  

• due to case insensitivity, the column names in the database for game history use the names "WhiteA", "BlackB", "WhiteB", "BlackA" (in this column order)

• for brevity, we use 'A', 'b', 'B', 'a' else (javascript, html)

• we call the teams "top" and "bottom"

• the winning team is positioned "bottom" into 'A','b' and losers into 'a','B'
