I agree that 1 ply isn't always that useful, but it seems reasonable to put a limit on depth and such. If there are a lot of responses, it may also give too much, so perhaps it's best to have the responders hide the advice and then openly post one diagram or so once they come to some sort of consensus?

I've had another idea for a modified Malkovich that I'd like to try. I call it "Solicitation Malkovich". The basic idea is that there are no handicap stones, but the weaker player gets to ask the observers for advice on limited occasions. [...]
Nice idea, the question is whether the audience just can be asked to show some good move in a given position or if the weaker player shall first suggest a few possible alternatives in a critical moment (e.g. shall I reduce at XX, invade at YY or tenuki at ZZ), and ask the audience to share their opinion on that?

I'd like to play a malkovich game again, if anyone is interested.

I'm not familiar with earlobe lingo.

Does this mean you are challenging 'skydyr'?
- If yes, have a good game!
- If no, I'm up for another game.

I would be agreeable for a game also. So if Elom plays Skydyr, maybe I'll play Kirby?

It may be a lot of work, but how would you all feel about a simultaneous round-robin?

Pay no mind to my corny play on the common phrase, upon hearing (reading) if any one would be interested in a Malkovich game. Yes, I am interested, although...

This sounds like a nice idea, if everyone feels able (count me as such).

I'm up for anything.

Though, I would like to give Elom first say, and to follow his preference, since he's the first person that responded to skydyr's challenge. For example, if he prefers a 1-on-1 game, that's fine with me. I really didn't get what the earlobe stuff was about, so I wasn't sure if he was interested in playing or not.

So, I will defer what I do to Elom... Sorry if I've made this a confusing situation :-)

As my posting from December got somewhat hidden during the discussion about "solicitation Malkovich games" I just would like to repeat that I'm still open for another Malkovich game. I'm open to any reasonable strength/handycap combination. Please feel free to pm me. If I get a regular Malkovich game I would be possibly also open for another game in "solicitation mode", if we find some feasible ruleset ;-)

Well, I'll start the game against Elom, and if anyone else wants to play me go ahead and start it.

As a word of warning, I'll likely be incommunicado for a few weeks in March.

So, #258: Skydyr vs. Elom.

Looks like Elom and Skydyr are set for now.

DJLLAP and schawipp still want to play. I'm currently in a Malkovich game, so you two can play if you'd like. Or if you'd prefer to play me, that's fine, too.

So maybe setup a game between the two of you if you want to play each other. Otherwise, if I see a game setup with my name on it, I'll play in that one :-)

Well, I'm able to play in three Malkovich games, so if someone else doesn't express interest in playing I'll be happy to open up a new match.

Or play in any Malkovich-Tournament, :)

If Kirby is still interested in playing a game, I'm still up for another game.

Sure, I'm ok for anything. Put it up with whatever settings you'd like.

Yes, I am still up for another game if anyone wants to play.

It looks like we may be unintentionally starting a mini league after all though :lol:


edit* sorry, I've only just realised I hadn't responded to your (Kirby) offer, so I assume that since you have already been offered (and started) another game you may not want to necessarily start another game, but I'd be happy playing another game if you don't mind playing another game.
