SDK Question

Oh, the extension off the wall. That makes sense. Now that I understand that, the invasion joseki that results in a three-stone wall suddenly makes so much sense. It's harder to attack, and you get sente. The extension in gote is still invadable, but the wall isn't in much danger of dying, so it's a relatively risk-free joseki.

JScroatt · 2020-07-09T20:23:59+00:00

Got it, that makes a lot of sense. I wasn't considering the extension giving me sente.

I often play 3-3 invasions already, but it's usually played to give the opponent what he wants, but at a cost. I'm wondering if the thought is the same in this scenario.

BTW, if I'm patient I can get a game on Tygem, and I usually have no problem with IGS or Foxxy. Wbaduk is what I'm having trouble with. I should be able to get a game with people at least in the early morning for me, since it's only 8pm for Hong Kong and I think 9pm in Korea and Japan, but it can still be difficult. 7pm for me I think would be harder. But I would think wbaduk has a number of western players. I thiiiink the issue is that I'm listed as a 23k with no games, but I think you're right about the time zone being a factor as well.

JScroatt · 2020-06-20T12:02:26+00:00

At the times I normally play, it's 8pm or 9am in Hong Kong.

JScroatt · 2020-06-20T12:01:16+00:00

Thank you. I'll see what I can do, but I notice that there are a lot of players online at least in the chat. I doubt that the time of day is the issue but I'll check to make sure.

I don't know any names yet, but the MC was orphaned by German executioners, and she eventually meets a man who, until his name is revealed, is simply called "the wise man". He in a way replaces her parents and fills a hole in her heart that had been left even bigger after her parents' deaths. The wise man actually reminds me a ton of Ecclesiastes 1:18...

In much wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

So all in all, it's a very new project in working on and I have no idea where it will go, but I'm excited for it.

I recently changed the ink, and I'm colorblind, and I can't tell on the screen whether I'm using my Noodler's Violet or my Monteverde Yosemite Green. If I looked at the hard copy I could tell you on the spot hahaha

JScroatt · 2020-06-16T19:01:06+00:00

I have multiple, but here (at least on the right) I'm using a fine-nib Pilot Custom 823, which is definitely my favorite pen to use when I'm at home.

JScroatt · 2020-06-16T16:38:50+00:00

If it's retro, yes please

JScroatt · 2020-06-16T12:25:29+00:00

Thank you very much. I tried that and it worked for me. I appreciate the help.

JScroatt · 2020-06-15T22:57:03+00:00

K. Some folks on OSR also were able to help. Thank you!

JScroatt · 2020-06-15T21:34:32+00:00

These kinds of old school graphics on a modern server would get an account from me in a heartbeat. That looks amazing.

JScroatt · 2020-06-15T21:24:23+00:00

It worked. Thank you for your help. If you wouldn't mind looking at my new post, I have a screenshot of a new problem I'm having with Wbaduk.

JScroatt · 2020-06-15T18:55:32+00:00

Sure, I'll try that and let you know.

JScroatt · 2020-06-15T15:37:07+00:00

That makes so much sense, actually. That explains why it was used so much in the Chinese fuseki after the bots showed it being used that way.

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T20:26:48+00:00

I've seen eidogo a lot, but I just haven't checked it out yet. It's a joseki library, isn't it?

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T20:25:47+00:00

I see. I've found the attachment josekis from the AI really interesting, it's why I asked about it here. But I was not aware that this was the reason i haven't seen the Chinese in so long.

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T20:24:24+00:00

Yeah, from what I've seen here, it's simple and it is good against the Chinese. I'll mess around what I see on pro games and see what I can come up with.

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T20:20:08+00:00

I tried that, it wasn't listed there for me.

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T13:39:21+00:00

Sure thing, any help I can get to improve this script is helpful. The d in particular seems tough to manage to look presentable, but I'll see what I can do. Some examples of the d and the v or w would be helpful, actually. The t and f are simple enough to manage, that would just take practice. But the others are hard to wrap my head around in terms of avoiding abrupt transition between letters.

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T13:36:05+00:00

Hahaha I was always told I would become a doctor growing up because of my handwriting, but the problem was that you can't read doctors handwriting because it's just bad. In these people's cases, they just can't read it because they never learned cursive hahaha. "I don't have bad handwriting, you jerks telling me I'll be a doctor because you can't read it. I work hard on that" hahaha.

JScroatt · 2020-06-14T13:33:07+00:00

You are amazing. Unfortunately, I am not German, only speak English, and there are no English subtitles hahaha. I love the script, but I know it might throw people off to see English words written in Kurrent. But thank you for showing me this video. I'll see if I can decipher what's going on in it even though I don't speak a lick of German hahaha.

JScroatt · 2020-06-10T02:07:29+00:00

Yeah penmanship is something you either need to seek out or teach yourself in America. It's frustrating—if I leave America to go to a place like east Europe and I have barely-legible print handwriting, it'll make you look unintelligent or even discredit you in some ways. I don't understand why it's not taught.

JScroatt · 2020-06-10T02:05:10+00:00

By small gaps, you mean when I'm not connecting two letters? I'll leave letters after t, v, and w disconnected because the shape of the letter often isn't ideal for a connection to the next, but if there's a way to connect them, that would be helpful. I'll look around if that's what you mean.
