I think that it is GG.

Black is playing an unnecessarily risky game. If white manages to isolate the black center stones, black may have to concede territory while scrambling for two eyes.

Something like this looks much safer.

Black 1 is huge.

I think that Q7 is intended here.

1) Move 7 commits you to life on the side. Prior to that, your R14 stone was light, and could be abandoned if he attacked it too vigorously.
Better would have been O16.

2) Move 21 is heavy. Better would have been P12.

...if black...plays... M17 why exactly isn't black worried about a potential push by white say from A to B, C, or D?

The double hane is huge.

In his SL page, wms says "...I think this SL is a great way to share KGS status and feature requests with other people..."

I infer that he intended SL to have the definitive list of admins, and the current admins have neglected to update.

@Gorim: Did you consider this?

I wouldn't mind if he tried to run with the D14 stone...

He may get his wish.

Bill Spight, the most 'liked' member of this forum, and most prolific contributor, has chosen to withdraw from most public life.
He hasn't posted on this forum since mid-August, and does not answer emails or phone calls from any members.
He is alive, but is rarely seen by his neighbors.

I believe ...

The stone R9 has no value, Black doesn't need to save it now...
Agreed.

...Black...can tenuki.
I'm not so sure about this. The two space extension by white starts looking big.
