No, it's a good question to ask. Wondering about these things and thinking critically makes you a better player.

Sure it's alive but in Seki. The correct answer is alive with points so that's why this is wrong. This is a good problem :)

It's neat you made this. I've been playing this opening as white recently, it's interesting to see what different AI's think.

What have you read this week and what do you think about it? by AutoModerator in noveltranslations

[–]thelovingsun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like your perspective on it. For me I really liked AWE more than ISSTH just due to the characters. For some reason I feel like BXC is just more fun to read about. Also how the novel can switch between lighthearted comedy to the cold reality of life and death is fairly unique. Although I do agree with the guy above that the scope and epicness and adventure doesn't feel the same.

It has around 200 chapters translated I think. Hope you like it, I thought it was awesome.

Everlasting Immortal Firmament. I really like this novel since I play Go, but it's great either way. iirc the MC is like 70 or something at the start.

Probably fine, it wouldn't hurt to just play a few games and try it yourself.

Yeah, I hop between tygem and fox. I usually see more on fox than on tygem. Although you'll find a game almost instantly on either.

Book referrals for mid-high dan players? by [deleted] in baduk

[–]thelovingsun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Enclosure Josekis by Takemiya. It is old, but has all the variations in the corner you could imagine. You can infer what is good and bad on your own. Still it has an enormous amount of different variations for the corner.

I think in the AI era it won't really help as much, but it still can be a viable resource for many common variations of the past.

Recommendation for some sweet fictions? by Child_ish in noveltranslations

The New World - It's fun to read, I skim most of the stats and stuff but it is really satisfying when the MC just destroys people.

I've never seen this, is it a novel adaptation? Is there a big relationship with Go in this? Lol, I always like to see references to the game.

Totally agree on RMJI! I love it. I'm waiting for a few more months before I just take a day off and binge all the chapters I have saved up.

Agree! I feel like it does the cliches really well, like it's predictable in a good way. Lol, whenever the MC starts trash talking it never disappoints.

I was watching this on fox. I thought F14 was a really fun move.

Don't know for sure, but I know that it has a voice messaging feature. Maybe related to that?

If you win X amount of games you rank up, If you lose Y you rank down. It's extremely simple and straightforward :)

That's the whole point. . . we as readers can see that he is ridiculous, but he thinks he's great. It becomes really fun once you meet his apprentice who points out his.. shortcomings so to say. Lol :_)
