I must confess I don't know joseki here at all, but unless Ed has some serious tech against Q15, I don't feel uncomfortable. Some moves look a bit scary, but he seems always one move behind if trying anything whimsical (famous last words).

I was expecting the second diagram in Post #92 -- B extending instead.

Every group has a nemesis, with just a little imagination. Except white's x group has a corner, and white's O group uses half as many stones. Maybe not that similar.

Unrelatedly, a title of "a thought" fills me with fear of:

Loons played that because he misread this.

Edit:
It might be more interesting to compare groups by who's corner it started as and how late they were played, which match quite well for our board.

Something else that becomes very evident, I feel, is that Q14 enclosure was a much worse move than K16, if I haven't said that already.

I agree. Definitely.

Loons has some big decision to make here, one that will affect the course of the game.

1)Should he try to save M2? If he can, the surrounding white stones are eyeless. If he can't they live easily.

2) Should he let white have the corner, and make territory down the side? Or should he kill the corner?

Will you mind if I switch to using coordinates on the game board ?

Loons, you and others are welcome to use coordinates, no problem. :)
Would it be OK if I don't use them? :P

Going back a bit, instead of :b45: capture, if :b1: nobi,
I don't think the following variation works for B, since (c) and (d) are miai for W:
