After White has 6 dame. In addition threatens , which in turn threatens the Black group.

@Observers: What the heck are they talking about? It has been about a week. And even an SDK who spends five minutes analyzing the position should be able to see that white must extend. Are they debating Trump vs Sanders? Maybe who is going to win the Super Bowl? Are they even close to making a move?

@obs It seems this hane is so painful it made andreyl resign Can't say I blame him, white's shapes are pretty ugly. TegaiS said this hane is not sente because black has to answer white's hane, but that's not strictly true, black could do something like this. The 1-2 exchange is already good for black, because even after the atari at 4 (atari of 4 as cut at 5 doesn't seem to work) white would need to come back to defend the cut, and this does not threaten to kill the black group at the top (whereas after the extend at 1 turn at 5 would) so black could tenuki again to a or b or whatever.

So, anyone feel like joining the team? Lowercase usernames preferred but not strictly necessary.

Author:	Joaz Banbeck [ Mon Feb 01, 2016 3:08 pm ]
Post subject:	Re: Capital vs. Lowercase: Collaboration Game
Should we allow a takeback? I don't know what is going on with the other team, but the long delay before moving coupled with the withdrawl of one player soon after the move suggests to me that white is having some kind of serious dispute. The result, IMHO, was a less than ideal move. So, @observers, black players and white players: should we do a takeback? In particular, @andreyl: would you rejoin if we did?

We can keep going or we can end it here, I'm fine either way.

Post subject:	Re: Capital vs. Lowercase: Collaboration Game
I got the sense (possibly incorrect) that andreyl may have had scheduling issues or trouble finding time for the game. I'm fine continuing or not. @white Assuming we continue, kosumi as mentioned? Edit: Thinking about it a bit more, most people who would be interested in participating have most likely read the comments on both sides already, so perhaps it would be better to call it quits and move on.

So it's been a week since we called for a volunteer. I'm all for throwing in the towel at this point if no one gets back to us soon. Edit: Yeah, I'm done and going to look it over.
