The participation in Karl Desfontaines' European Go Journal article (March issue) on implementing KataGo to try and solve Igo Hatsuyōron 120 made me realise that some initial inconsistencies could be attributed to the fact that the "significant" contents of our website were extremely difficult to access due to its very confusing structure, even for professional players.
So I set about a rewrite in a kind of "open countryside".
This
New Story Line 2022 (comprehensive, but nevertheless extensive) will explain all the elements of Inoue Dōsetsu Inseki's masterpiece in a coherent, rewritten, form – based on our current state of knowledge.
It aims at providing a simpler approach to the problem, allowing interested Go players to explore all the beauties of the problem (in the desired level of detail) without having to trudge through the very confusing maze of the historical sequence of our analyses (what this website was never originally intended for).
Different colours of the board surface not only indicate the different phases of problem solving, but also mark the authorship of the respective moves – starting with Fujisawa Hideyuki 9p and ending with KataGo.
For easy reminder, its start page is mirrored at

Apart from that, the
2022 update also contains KataGo's analysis results on issues that had caused us massive headaches in the early days of our engagement with the problem (what the original planning was):

It was not possible for me to check everything and anything several times. So if you stumble across any bugs, please let me know.
