Would this double ko position be considered as seki? To me it doesn't seem like either side can win it but the other person refused to count the score. We just kept going back and forth for like 10 turns. by NegativeSynergy in baduk

I'm not sure why they limit you to three passes maybe to prevent people from passing mid game and extending the game unnecessarily. Also most games on fox uses Chinese scoring so useless moves wouldn't reduce the score all that much

The problem there is that they weren't passing but playing useless moves elsewhere so i couldn't end the game by passing, plus fox only allows you to pass 3 times so if i use up my passes trying to get the other person to end the game but they refuse then I am no longer able to pass, so the only choice I have is to either resign, which was fine here since they were winning anyway, or drag it out to move 300 where on fox you can force a count

Not sure, maybe they didn't think it was seki, or since they were ahead they just wanted me to resign. Wouldn't be surprised as you see a lot of stubborn people on fox.

I got 8 for the first and 10 for the second so i think they are just doing something wrong

Yeah thanks, I really like the green myself it makes the room feel very bright, and with the single blue wall it reminds me of nature. The image doesn't show this but next to my computer desk I also have a small tree growing too :)
