Life In 19x19

Thanks for the reply!

I would also like to know where to buy it, if necessary. Isn't there a version having diagrams with moves in Arabic numerals? My friend isn't very adept with Chinese characters, unfortunately.

Hi there, everyone! I haven't been here in years! I like the improvements to the site!

Asking for a friend. Where could I find a PDF copy of 忘優清樂集 , free or paid? Thanks in advance!

Last weekend I played this game against my teacher and I will say that she is very strong. I took 8 stones and still lost by 38.5 points, so I did make some grave mistakes. Point them out without mercy and much obliged in advance for your kind commentary.

Note: I have difficulty uploading the SGF ...

The national culture is the world culture. My goal is to restore the traditional Chinese Weiqi culture so as to distinguish it from the go culture transformed in Japan. This is the only way for the revival of Chinese Weiqi culture.

As for your choice, it is of course freedom. I think this is a ...

I played a couple of games against this player on OGS and I lost rather terribly. I looked at the profile and didn't see any lost games. As well, the strongest challenging player see there is 6k. Any chance it might be a sandbagger's account?

Here is a game in which I lost by 1.5 points on 13x13. I got a bit too enthusiastic with sacrificing stones.

You opening looks a bit slow. You tend to add stones to a region where you already have stones, while large areas are still open or while a corner hasn't been approached yet. A general principle is that, at the beginning of the game, it is better to start a new group rather than add a stone to an ...

I enjoyed his review of a Guo Bailing game. We should review Old Chinese games more.

I also disagree that Western teachers are better. I don't remember being taught mindfulness at school. Now on YouTube I find many trainers of the body of Chinese youtubers who really explain much better. I find that mindfulness is increased after a period of effortful study. One is able to ...

Today I played a total of 8 games against the following opponent on OGS. All the games are 13x13. I was brutalized in this series ^^; Though, today I'll submit just 3 of them. I have some ways to go before getting to 4k.

Love how polite and friendly you are playing online. Even when the guy is not answering. Kudos to you and good attitude to be grateful to play a stronger player instead of being mad by being "cheated" by a sandbagger. Keep that positive attitude :) To be honest, I was very upset at having lost to a ...

I got a look and he hasn't been there long. Might be around 4k in strength since 1 loss against a 5k is recorded.

I got creamed on this one. I doubt my opponent is 7k. Or maybe he is actually 7k and my Go skills have become very weak ^^; He plays for influence and I don't know much about playing against influence. As well, my opponent used forceful plays and I should learn how to stay away from early fights ...
