No such word, it's 'regardless.'

@Laman:
Hopefully Balmung doesn't mind - I'm not sure if he's explicitly stated that he is the video poster:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdHh90K_N6E

Edit for hide, and also to mention that perhaps my hope that he doesn't mind should have came before my first comment that mentions the video :p

I do not fall prone to vulgure moves thanks to high amounts of tsumego and tesuji I have been studying.


As is evident from balmung's recent sansan invasion video on youtube.


lol I haven't made a youtube video in quite a while, and now I feel I'm being stalked. Any who the video I think your talking about was showing a mistake in the corner my rival made, and how to avoid it. This video in fact was before I reached 6 kyu kgs and had to put up with vulgure plays across the board.

I don't think their dicussing the game as much as they are insulting me, and trying to make me out to be an egotistical idiot, which doesn't bother me I'm here to play go not worry about what others think.

Hey Balmung,
Out of curiosity, how often do you play high handicap games?

@loons

I play against high handicaps more than with them, but the highest handicap I have played with in a while is 4 against my 7d teacher lol. I'm expecting to get slaughtered. :-)

No in such a handicap game it is only exceptable to play invasions in strategic areas to get a foot hold in a game. An invasion is not vulgure by it self. Playing an invasion that has no logical way to live just for it to live is stupid and vulgure, but playing the same invasion to let it die and get very good compensation is often brilliance.
