Re: What do you think of that?

I like the idea but I do not know how expensive such a website would be.
Don't we have some developers here? What do they think?

It would cost virtually nothing but time.

Time to deal with malicious attacks, time to decide how to handle 4chan enthusiasts' inevitable project to make a giant ...

Re:

Is it something I learn by playing many more games? Or has someone resources about some common moves I could learn? Hi BotX,

It's different answers depending on different people: the age, the experience, the environment.

About how many total games have you played so far, since you started Go ...

Re: 17k game review - what to focus on?

Now I see how bad I played that one. I did not find the correct solutuins except for :w22:
How can I improve at making those "indirect" moves. Is it something I learn by playing many more games? Or has someone resources about some common moves I could learn?

Re: 17k game review - what to focus on?

I have anohter game to review and do not want to create another thread. In this game I got destroyed in the beginning of the game already and I have got no idea how I could have prevented it. My blunders in the late game are pretty embarrassing too but I know what I could have done better then ...

Re: 17k game review - what to focus on?

General comment is that your approach is too direct.

You have to be looking for plays like :w32: at K12, :w52: at L5, :w62: at G4. These have meanings like "live quickly, and if Black captures one, move elsewhere", "take corner territory", "build a whole side".

As another general comment, pay ...

Re: 17k game review - what to focus on?

Thank you so far. I do not quite understand what you mean with identify where eyespace is. In :w38: I tried to take some territory from black and in the end I was able to create two eyes. What should I have done different there?
38 is not the time to take territory away from black since white ...

Re: 17k game review - what to focus on?

Hello,

A few thoughts:

- reduce obvious blunders :w14: :w82:
- do not try to save every stone :w32: (white group could live easily before that)
- identify where eyespace is :w38:
- identify the biggest areas :w52: :w62: :w64:
Thank you so far. I do not quite understand what you mean with ...

17k game review - what to focus on?

Hello everyone. I will attach one of my first 13x13 games (I am white) to this post and would be very glad if someone could have a look and analyse it.
I think I have a basic understanding of the game and can react to simple attacks, I know something about cutting points and shapes and have got a ...

Was this scoring correct?

Hello everyone

I am currently learning go and played a game online. I am not very good at scoring points so I let usually do it my opponent. Anyway, in my most recent game he marked my only group as dead and I do not really agree with that. Can anyone please have a look at the game, and maybe give ...
