The officials decided that there was no clock malfunction, but rather that he just ran out of time.NeoNemesis wrote:According to http://ranka.intergofed.org/, it seems like a slight clock malfunction which confused both players until the clock ran out of time. My apologies to the American representative. I wonder how often this happens in the WAGC. They should use better clocks if this happens too often.

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
i've heard (from report by Lukáš Podpěra) that after the confusion Nakazono actually pushed his clock few seconds before the end of the period, but the clock wouldn't respond and announced the time loss. i can't tell what had really happened, just wanted to share another version of the events
i am only familiar with the ing clock, but for them it is truth that i occasionaly have to push them twice in order for them to take a notice. luckily never happened in such a time trouble to cause me to lose. it shows an advantage of DGT style clock over the clock with buttons. once you push them, it is obvious
either way, the moral of the story is that you should never resign and sometimes it earns you a win regardless of the situation on the board

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
Standings after round 5:
From the reports at Ranka I gather that the Moroccan player is a no show, but he is paired each round, so all those results are forfeits.

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
Standings after round 6.
Now with the official ranks, short country codes and all names converted to have last name first, with a comma behind it where appropriate.
Sorting is now according to the official rules (SOS, SOS without first round, SOS without first two rounds, etc).
All games against the absent Moroccan player are listed as 0+, and the Moroccan player has all his games listed as 0-.
EDIT: Gave Colin his uppercase S and extra e

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
Where are you getting the SGFs? I was looking for the Chile-Brazil game to share with the Brazil FB group. Thanks.

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
A selection of the kifu can be found here: http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/amakisen/wor ... /kifu.html. The Chile-Brazil game is not listed. I don't know if there is a more comprehensive source.

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
More than a selection of kifu is a selection of games.
In Japan they've been putting 8 computers to transmit some games and have the policy of "try to transmit at least one game from every participant". Obviously they always put attention to the top favorites, but if China is about to play a low-dan they don't transmit that one and prefer a fighted 1dan-1dan game of players that didn't have a chance to be seen online.
In China they only put 4 tables: one for China, one for the South Korea and the matches of the other 2 top classified players. Differente places, different philosophy
You can compare:

http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/amakisen/wor ... /kifu.html
http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/amakisen/wor ... /kifu.html
So, we depend on the memory of the each of the other player to think about any extra kifu. And I think we won't see the game Brasil-Chile but in photos

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
He-he I wasn't suggested he (Japanese 8d) was breaking any rules - I was saying double handed play is breaking the rules. Now I've read about what happened, there is scope for saying that this smelt a bit. It could well be a case of Japan thought they pressed the clock after their move- but didn't, USA then plays, tries to press the clock. Obviously you can't press the clock twice, so it does nothing. Then Japan runs out of time. If I notice somebody hasn't pressed their clock, I do generally tell them, because it is the nice thing to do.
Anyway, I have no idea what happened, I just hope the referee did.

NeoNemesis wrote: It's a good point, but since the game is almost over, why not just finish it. The Japanese guy is an older gentleman. He may be less familiar or forgetful when it comes to clocks. I don't think he was deliberately breaking the rules. My opponents in real life tournaments often forget to press their clocks. Sometimes even I do. Of course, I wasn't there, so it's hard to say what actually happened in regards to time. What's unquestionable is what is on the board. I think anyone with a basic knowledge of go can win that game in the Japanese player's position.
I don't know and it's completely the American's right to take the victory. I just believe it's good sportsmanship to finish a game that's almost done.

Ah yes, it does a very simple conversion from the ranka tables, just lowercasing everything but the first letter. I've fixed it.Javaness2 wrote:Herman, I think your script doesn't handle Mac / Mc names properly?

Re: World Amateur Go Championship 2012
Quite interesting fight between North Corea (Black) and China (White) from the very beginning!! in a very complex and recent variation of the three space pincer after a keima approach on a 3-4 point!
It's sad that the game was won by time for China!

It was very bad for the Japan-USA game, where the time forfeit reverted the result on the board.
