Life In 19x19

Hey there,

if I would make a app or website about tsumegos, am I allowed to use the Graded Go Problems-Tsumegos for example? Or do I have to "invent" new ones?

Hey there,

I (16k in OGS) often see as black that white takes the corner which is diagonal to my first corner. It's really seldom to see that white doesn't and then I will play diagonal. I am playing this just for fun and because it seems to be unorthodox. But why is it unorthodox?

Next proof of my fighting weakness.

I don't know what I thought about , P10 should be the right answer, right?

He has 19 prisoners in the end, I have one. This is like every game...

:b4: Not so bad, but: can you see J3 ( near there ) is a nice point for W ?
If W jumps around there, W can settle himself,
so B doesn't get much there.

Did you consider L3 or Q2 ?

If he plays on J3 I would cap him => he gets territory on the bottom, I would get influence to the mid (at least ...

Here is my worst loss of today:

Hey guys,

so, here is my study journal:

I'm 30 year old and started go at the beginning of this year. I did know the rules before but didn't really play a game. I reached a unstable 21kyu level at the beginning of the summer and then had a long break until October. From then on I ...
