My silly thoughts about which pro players to study

(more or less meant to be humorous)

So, after a long break (a year or something?) i decided to continue playing and studying go. This time... serious

So, one thing wich interests me from the beginning when i started learning the game, was that different pro players can have a different style ...

Re: “AlphaGo—A Documentary” (90 min) by Greg Kohs

i did watch it yesterday. It was really well made. Being a documentary film director myself, i prefer documentary films wich are a little bit less "perfect" with more uncommented observations, not so much staging, but i think in this case, this form really was well chosen. If they would have made it ...

Re: What went wrong with AlphaGo ?

I just restarted studying and playing Go after a long break. I have to admit that Alpha Go`s win`s against Lee Sedol and Fan Hui unconsciously demotivated me... although it took me some time to accept that.

Re: smart way to batch make a lot of sgf files anonymous?

Ohh, actually there is a quite ok way to do it in smartgo windows (not mac) without any other software... i did not knew that you can edit more player info than only one... normally i use the mac version, so i forgot how powerful the windows version is.
