Re: New YouTube Videos by Ben Mantle as of November, 2020!

@bogiesan Thanks for the suggestion! Yes, I think it's a great idea. I managed to get one video ahead recently, but then I found myself pretty busy and lost that (mere) one-week advantage. I have been posting weekly, but I was a day late on one and either way, that staying ahead strategy would be ...

My new name on Twitch is BenKyo361 (not benky0).
My YouTube is the ...

Re: New YouTube Videos by Ben Mantle as of November, 2020!

Hey guys,

Sorry for the late reply, I'll see about setting notifications to my email, assuming that's something I can do here.

@Knotwilg: Thanks for the feedback! I will definitely make it more clear next time why black would cut off white's stone.

@gennan: Yes, you're absolutely right. Perhaps ...

Hello everyone,

I'm excited to inform you that I've started posting weekly Go videos to https://youtube.com/benkyotutoring and the second one will be uploaded this Saturday! The current series is called 'Joseki Concepts' and I have tons of other plans in store, including commented live-play. I'm ...

Re: New 5d Go Streamer/Content Creator

Thanks WiseMouse!

I streamed last night and had no music on whatsoever, which went well this time (it felt a bit awkward the stream before that when I first tried without music, but I think that was more because it was just a slow night). I guess it's just up to the streamer to keep things exciting ...

Re: New 5d Go Streamer/Content Creator

I'd love some more opinions on the music vs. no music thing!
So far, I'm still getting mixed opinions, and it's troubling. If it were up to me, I'd have music for streams, and none for shorter Youtube-style Go lesson videos. Streams are really long and music can help keep up energy and excitement ...

Re: New 5d Go Streamer/Content Creator

Thanks

Update: I will go without any music for the next stream or two and see how that goes. There's a bit of delay between the next stream and my last one because of being really, really busy over the past week but I'm starting up a regular schedule soon.

I'm thinking of gong with Mondays ...

Re: New 5d Go Streamer/Content Creator

I will strongly consider removing the audio then! One other person said that to me, while the others said the opposite. I think my latest stream was a bit on the louder side.

Thanks for the feedback! :)

New 5d Go Streamer/Content Creator

Hello everyone!

If I may do so here, I'd just like to make it known that I've started streaming live commented Go games on Twitch and developing my Youtube channel as well. There's still a lot of work to do, but those interested in watching my Go content have a lot to look forward to and I'm really ...

Re: Active Go Teacher

Update after a long time:

Alakazam = me and there will be no more account switches. My universal Go handles when I can get one of them are BenKyo and BadDuke, now and forever.
I am actively teaching and offering lessons, I'd still like to increase my student roster. You can find my website in my ...

Re: Go Lessons, Cheap and Good! New Go Website!

Alakazam = me, and frankly I wish I could delete some of my silly old posts ^_^

I teach a lot these days, and my accounts now and forever are generally either BenKyo (as in BenKyo Tutoring) and BadDuke.
See signature for Go lessons website and other details! You can email me at benkyotutoring@gmail ...

Re: Experienced Baduk Tutor For Hire

Thanks to everyone so far who has vouched for me or helped with specific inquiries

Tutoring in recent years and months has been going very well, but I'm still looking to increase the student roster.
I have a new website now, m. You can find testimonials, but no samples yet.

For now, samples are ...

Re: Experienced Baduk Tutor For Hire

To clean up this discussion I've deleted some redundant posts that mainly answered about my playing strength.

I have also adjusted some profile information; since I've still yet to get my Canadian rating to 6d, I have adjusted it to 5d on my profile.

I will eventually get a website back up and ...
