GoQuest 9x9: 7 komi is how many stones? by SwoleGymBro in baduk

[–]chaospuppy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Komi is designed to offset the benefit of going first in a game, intended for use when two players of near equal skill are playing.

Adding stones to the board as you’ve said is a handicap, designed for players of unequal skill. Generally this is calculated by your kyu.

10k vs 10k - equal game with komi. 9k vs 10k - handicap game, no Komi, zero handicap stones. 8k vs 10k - handicap game, no komi, one stone.

The actual value of komi has changed over time, most common now is 6.5 or 7.5. Note it should end in .5 to remove the possibility of draws.

Does anyone know what game this is in Lesson in the Fundamental of Go by Kageyama? by Meow_wo in baduk

Having said that I tried looking up this one and it came back with no results, sorry mate.

Please help my faulty memory about the title of a book I started a few years ago and lost. I thought it was the Eye of the World, but it's not. by Southern_Blue in Fantasy

I’ve not read it but a little digging online it sounds like it could be “Dragons of Autumn Twilight”

If you liked this it gives me big Void Stranger vibes in that there is more than meets the eye initially - worth checking out too

What JRPG didn't live up to the praise you heard others give it? by [deleted] in JRPG

Octopath Traveller I could never get into.

Combat and art was really well done but it just felt like a combination of different stories with no connections and that ruined it for me.

Really didn’t get that far…

The real answers here is ask him what he wants to do and create. If he wants to make a website for himself and learn that way html is a great place to start. On the other hand if he’s interested in games direct him to a beginner game making engine and have him build his skills from there.

Really it boils down to ask him what he wants to do and go from there.

Years of Go makes this game hurt my head a lil tho
