tj86430 has agreed to play me in an even game, so we'll take the skipped #160, I guess.

Next is #162.

I also would play a even 19x19 game. Everybody is invited and Komi could be used to adjust the rank difference if it's to much, but I would also play totally even.

My offer for Sunjang Baduk keeps open.

I'm around to play a second game alongside my other one, as the pace of that one is slow enough that it isn't too time consuming. If anyone's interested, PM me

sur and I are playing an even game

163 is next

Boidhre and I will play an Even matched Malkovich game. He will play as black.

Can we be 164? If so 164 is next (correct me if I'm doing this wrong )

It means you are 163, and 164 is the number for the next match (saves people working it out)

Hi,

I am fairly new to things around here but I would like to give Malkovich a try.

I am around 10k.

I would like to experience the benefits of explaining my play although I will have to learn how to make the numbered diagrams.

I have always enjoyed following the Malkovich games on here.

Playing malkovitch seems like a great way to get in more serious games. I am(to my annoyance) still 12 kyu. I'll play anyone 16-17kyu or stronger. I would prefer playing either reduced handicap or reverse Komi games to level out rank disparity.

Edit: I sent you a PM wanderling. But I've had trouble with the system the last few I sent. Let me know if it got through right.

Me and Wanderling are starting a game. Ours is 164.

Game 165 is next

Hi I'm now a 2 kyu on KGS I will be please to play anyone at any handicap.

LexC, would you like to play an even game, nigiri, Japanese rules, 6.5 komi, closed book and database. If so, please set it up. Thanks.

Me and EdLee starting the game number 165
next 166

I'm still searching a new opponent

I would play against everyone but I would prefer to play with max 4 stones handicap. If you really want take/give more stones I would prefer reverse komi.

Celebrir, would you like to play a game? Same rules as LexC's -- even, 6.5 komi, Japanese rules, nigiri, closed book and databases.
If yes, please set up the board.

Boidhe wrote me already a PM but I think I'm able to handle two games.

Game opened.
Next is 167

As per our discussion, 4 stone handicap, open book.


Next is 168

I reckon it's time to hold my feet to the fire and get some feedback from other players. I'd like to play a Malkovitch--preferably even, though I'm ok if you're a few stones stronger or weaker than I am.

I'm finishing up a course right now, so while I have a little time to play, especially the opening, I'd also be fine to start in two weeks or so.

I still don't get it. we discuss our game in an ongoing game?

Can I join too? but my rank is ddk here.is it allright?

Yes. Watch some of the other Malkovich games to see what people do.
Yes, anybody can join, if you can find an opponent. Would you like to play a game?

Yes.. I would like to join too.
I'm around 12k KGS (my rank right now), but I don't play kgs about few months a go and my sparing partner in my real life said that I already improve a few stones.

I'd also like to sign up if anyone wants to play an even game. I'm about 18kyu. If someone stronger wouldn't mind playing, I'd be more than willing to work with a reverse komi to make it more interesting. However, I would prefer no handicap stones.

I'm hoping this will help me keep in practice playing even on days when I don't have time to commit to a game on kgs.

Edit:

bakekoq was nice enough to PM me. So I'll open the thread & then PM you per your request.

So this will be game 168

EdLee also PM'd me and I'll set up that game as 169.

Thanks, guys. I'm really looking forward to this.

170 is next.
