I remember an article about 'hardwiring' go problems (i.e. doing them many times, looking at them upside-down, sideways etc. to learn them so well that solving them is completely automatic), probably on Sensei's Library, and IIRC written by DrStraw, but I can't find it any more. Could somebody please link me to it?
Thanks,
Will

Guess what. Go to my home page on SL and scroll down to the bottom.
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

Interesting idea. I think that I will try it.

Re: Dr. Straw's hardwiring article
Gogrinder for iPhone has a nice set of 150 basic problems, and it shuffles the color, position, and order of problems every time. I'm trying to be able to score 100% on it on every run-through in hopes of it yielding some improvement.

Re: Dr. Straw's hardwiring article
I know a EGF 5-dan, who went memorizing like one thousand Life-and-Death-situations while achieving his rank.
I know an aspiring EGF 3-dan, who has mass (after) Joseki knowledge (seems to know the complete Ishida) and who didn't do any Tsumego at least since he was 1k (though this was half a year ago, he didn't do any Tsumegos since I know him and that would be a year).
And here am I. I severely lack reading and I don't know any Joseki-variation but the usual ones and still I will eventually reach 3k next month.
Go sure is fascinating =)
