Move count = 0 seems to be displayed _only_ if 48 moves have been submitted. After submitting move #49 the counter is correct again.

(A Dvonn board has 48 fields.)

Actually, a DVONN board has 49 (23 + 23 + 3) pieces. But the white player does not have to place his last piece, since there is only one possible space, so Move 48 includes the last black piece and the last white piece. Move 49 (the move AFTER the 49th piece has been placed) is the first time a piece is moved from one space to another.
