I think I have a thousand year ko with the descents to B4 and E1, and I was happy enough with that. I'd most likely spend the time patching up all the big ko threats. There's also the ko threats I have in return for my group in the top left. I don't think there's an outright kill, but I couldn't read a seki, let alone life (unless you consider 1000-year-ko seki).

EDIT: Magicwand is right of course, C1 and connect is a seki.

On that point, my real concern was wB4 instead of connecting at C6. That looked like ko to me.

I was beaten by the killing maelstrom that is the herminator, but a really great game nonetheless

The game of ChradH vs. mic (W+16.5). I got lucky that I could run out in the center to get my second eye, phew :). Thanks again for this game, ChradH!

Just a heads up - there are 5 games due to be played by the end of the day, which are as follows:

daal vs fwiffo
actorios vs dfan
aphelion vs ketchup
jordus vs padic
li kao vs kokomi

(For those who have already arranged your game and / or informed me, that's fine, this was just to serve as a reminder generally!)

Aphelion has suggested a game time of Sunday 7/18 at 10PM EST. To me, this seems okay, but we will see if he is up to it or not. This is the same day he comes around from his travels, so it might be a bit difficult for him. Regardless though, we should be getting the game within this upcoming week some time.

duskeagle and I played today, I won by 1.5 points.
Here's the SGF:




I think it was definitly not the best game we are both capable of, but it was a very hard fight until the end.

Thanks a lot, Dan for the game. It was very enjoyable... My goal was really just to offer you a decent game... The outcome was totally unexpected.
