| Post subject: | Index to useful posts for beginners |
Every once in a while, in a forum other than 'beginners', a post is made that would be very useful for a beginner. I'm starting this thread to be an index to those particular posts or threads. To the experienced contributors: Post links here. Please make it easy for the beginners. Being beginners, they may not be able to look at a whole thread and see which post has the info that they need. So link to the particular post, not just to the thread.( To get the URL for a post, when looking at the post in a thread, click on the post number and it will appear with its own URL. ) EDIT: As Phelan suggests, a label may help. To the beginners: Welcome. I hope you find this useful. EDIT: As chew Terr suggested, I've copied suggestions to this post. I may have missed some, so when you are done with everything listed in this post, you might check the rest of the thread for those that I missed. The index starts here: Very basic stuff: forum/viewtopic.php?p=73366#p73366 Very basic stuff: forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=13111 Very basic stuff: forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=13116 On fundamentals: forum/viewtopic.php?p=9052#p9052 More fundamentals: forum/viewtopic.php?p=11862#p11862 Making big moves: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 366#p73366 On tewari analysis: forum/viewtopic.php?p=9085#p9085 ( adv beginner level ) More tewari: forum/viewtopic.php?p=13757#p13757 ( adv beginner level ) Ko threats: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 023#p18023 Pushing and shoving: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 71#p16371( whole thread ) Sector lines: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 405#p21405 How to do tsumego: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 316#p29316 ( adv beginner level ) Building moyos: forum/viewtopic.php?p=17143#p17143 Strong vs weak groups: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 646#p28646 When to kick: forum/viewtopic.php?p=36322#p36322 Pincers: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 837#p40837 A minor tesuji: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 783#p53783 How to use a wall: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 816#p53816 Basic corner shapes: forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&p=14329#p14329 Cutting the keima: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 335#p14335 Playing checklist: forum/viewtopic.php?p=16127#p16127 Direction of play: forum/viewtopic.php?p=84090#p84090 ( adv beginner level ) Responding to a cap: forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5451 ( whole thread ) Advice on fighting: forum/viewtopic.php?p=91310#p91310 More on shape: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 828#p99828 Miscellaneous opening advice: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 88#p101488 Micro introduction to joseki: forum/viewtopic.php?p=105447#p105447 Exemplary definition of 'heavy': forum/viewtopic.php?p=106662#p106662 On connecting: forum/viewtopic.php?p=130904#p130904 Forcing/sente moves: forum/viewtopic.php?p=101695#p101695 A sub-index of beginner posts: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 88#p127288 On counting: http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... 46#p144846 ( beginner/intermediate) False eyes: https://lifein19x19.com/viewtopic.php?f ... 79#p246879 How to read: forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=8825 Links to other useful sites: forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=10825 Whose territory is this?

I'd put a label on the links, to know what they're about. For instance, I'd label that post "Fundamentals", or something like it. Other than that, good idea, and the thread should be stickied to the top of the forum. |

I like the idea of having something like this, like the starting points on Sensei's. If you're willing Joaz, it would be convenient if you index all of the links in your first post, which may be your intent. Elesthor had some fairly sharp questions about the opening that several of us have been fielding. This may serve as an opening guide until we get a more focused tutorial. I don't know if this thread qualifies, since it's more the whole thread instead of one single post. viewtopic.php?p=9667#p9667 Also, for the same reason that this thread should exist in the first place, I think it should be stickied. |

Another introductory thing that I liked was by Kirby in what I think was his first Malkovich game. His post was on the merits of different first stone options as white, and is here: viewtopic.php?p=3785#p3785 Edit: Dusk Eagle also did a brief overview of the Big Three Beginners Joseki (Kite, high approach attachment, 3-3 invasion) here: viewtopic.php?p=11851#p11851 |

http://playgo.to/iwtg/en/ I also think this is a good source for the upper echelon of beginners and teaching people that have never played before the rules. [admin] Ok, it is a decent link, but please note that this thread is supposed to be an INDEX to OTHER POSTS ON THIS SITE. -JB [/admin] |
