I dunno, in response to the earlier comment about minimal data being better than no data... I strongly disagree, Drawing a conclusion in this case can point you in entirely the wrong direction...

Now, if it's about what's best for you, I don't think you need to spend any time working on mathematical rigor, It's a subjective answer to a subjective question, it's about how you feel.
Tactics yes, Tact no...

Finished memorizing first Samsung, and also the second. Went to a lecture by Jung Hoon Lee (AGA 7d), were he discussed the opening of the last game of the Nongshim Cup, so I may look at that some. Month is almost over, need to play some more evaluation games, but I've been on a losing streak this month, unfortunately.

Are you still on it? Can you already give some insight, what you think is the best approach?

No, I haven't been studying much lately, partly because of work, partly because of starcraft. I still like the idea though, and I think I'll come back to it eventually, maybe try a little harder to get the studying in.

Recently almost the only studying I've been doing is replaying and trying to guess the next moves of Takemiya Masaki games. It's been interesting and fun, and I at least haven't got much weaker. :cool:
