Life In 19x19

My style is "passive"... Weird, since I always try to attack and cut everything, and I play very influence oriented sometimes.

Ehhrm, I don't think there are "mediocre" go players. You aren't making a life out of it you know, neither you are responsable of someone while doing it, so there is no point in being so harsh towards it. You are just learning a game and keeping your own pace (this by itself helps towards making it ...

Trying a more solid play helps, aji is a killer for player like us (kyu players)

Bloodthirsty

This year i just want to understand my mistakes.

Another weird game on Tygem, this time I played veery poorly and got a lucky win, 147 for example may be my worst move ever done in all my life. Also in 31 I should have played Q11

I tried 5-4 but I think I oriented them in a bad way

I think it's different to evaluate with the language itself, verbalizing the situation, to evaluate the situations with a go mindset, without speaking really, just by looking or reading what is going on, like using the go experience to evaluate what's going on. I think a lot of people can give ...
