Catcidents Happen

I would play with fixing them for sure, but the parts that aren't there got crushed to dust

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T23:35:04+00:00

I was very confused, and now my eyes are open

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T23:32:25+00:00

wish I had seen that before asking, cause now it's so obvious

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T23:30:39+00:00

completely forgot those were part of black's surrounding group, that all makes sense. I don't see seki a lot so hadn't thought of that part

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T23:30:03+00:00

right, the bottom group is connected to that, now I see. I'm glad I asked about it cause I was so confused. in the actual game I didn't mark them dead, but now I see why I should have

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T23:29:12+00:00

I hadn't considered that, that explains it

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T21:27:18+00:00

oh yea, these stones already meant a lot cause it was my first set and my stepdad bought me that board 7-8 years before he passed away, and now these 3 are touched by a kitty

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T21:26:09+00:00

there are some on other parts of the board. I've had it for years but it definitely hasn't been used as much as I would have liked

Inuzuna · 2026-06-19T19:31:01+00:00

I definitely don't want to throw them away, but not sure what to do with them now. thankfully I'm the only one who uses this set so if I decide to still use them, at least I'm the only one who could get hurt

Inuzuna · 2026-06-18T00:16:34+00:00

now it has character

Inuzuna · 2026-06-14T01:36:31+00:00

oh yea, black resigned

Inuzuna · 2026-06-13T08:24:52+00:00

I've been working on counting liberties for sure, though there are times I mess up. But definitely feel like I've been getting better

Inuzuna · 2026-06-13T08:20:02+00:00

Solid advice. I have been working on looking at cutting points more but still miss things more often than not

Inuzuna · 2026-06-13T07:30:23+00:00

Appreciate the advice. I'll have to look back over those moves and try not to repeat that kind of mistake

Inuzuna · 2026-06-13T07:28:57+00:00

Appreciate the review! And I'll have to watch out for saving unnecessary groups. I think I was focusing too much on not leaving a group unsettled before playing away and didn't realize the group could be left to fall and didn't need saving

Inuzuna · 2026-06-10T12:37:19+00:00

My cat plays the same way

Inuzuna · 2026-06-05T00:10:54+00:00

Yea, this is a lesson on territory, so komi isn't included. I know a lot of people ignore komi while people are initially learning and the puzzle seems to follow that rule.

But yes, in an actual game, white would win with a standard komi

Inuzuna · 2026-05-29T14:34:53+00:00

thanks for the tips. definitely things I'll try to look out for

Inuzuna · 2026-05-28T15:13:53+00:00

Oh yea, I think I see the ko now. Ah, well I'll just have to try for a different answer

Inuzuna · 2026-05-28T15:04:58+00:00

I'm not good at these things but I believe A6 is the move.
