Hey guys! I just had my highest ranked win, beating a 9k! It was a super close game–I won by 5.5. Was wondering if you guys could review it for me. I played black in this game.I'm curious what rank you guys think I am, as I have a pretty big discrepancy across servers.

I think there is a tesuji you will learn from this review. :)



Congratulations on your win. :clap: :clap: :clap:

As for your rank, I don't know. But: low, slow, passive, overconcentrated. Sounds like DDK to me.

Edit: I see there is a variation out of place. BRB.

Edit2: I removed a problematic variation, and it's still screwed up. I'll have to redo.

Edit3: I redid the whole game with GoWrite2. I don't know why it's weird. It has something to do with the multi-game format, I guess.

Edit4: This is a newly downloaded file. IT appears to be in multigame format. I'll see if I can remove the supposed second game. And start over. Maybe in the morning. Sorry.

Edit5: Almost correct. Somehow I deleted :b37: in the real game, which is a connection. Very small.

Do like Danton says. Be bold! Be bold! Be bold! Always. In this game you let White push you around in the early game. If you stop letting your opponents push you around, and maybe do a little pushing yourself, you can improve your game and raise your rank. :) Good luck!

And that goes to show there is no universal rank. You are all those ranks, on all those different servers.

some people are a 7 kyu on OGS, but almost a Dan on some other server. So what rank are they?
Again, they are both, on the two servers.

If you make your own (unofficial) federation and you get one extra player in it, who is new to the game, you may call yourself an 8 Dan, congratulations! (Not sure how that works, though, maybe then you are a 1-dan, or something in the middle?)
Maybe that doesn't work the way I think it does, but you get my point ;-)

Let me add one more comment.

Congratulations on Black 177 - 181, which made you a nice profit. You even scared White into making an unnecessary protective play. ;)
