Re: Downloading your own games records (iPad)

On my iPad I use mainly Tetsuki.

I test the 3 apps. My prefered server (for the reasons you told) is Tygem. But it's really a pain not to be able to review our games correctly. With Wbaduk it's quite difficult to find a game as you noticed. Tetsuki : IGS is not the best of the best server on the ...

Re: Any Android client for Tygem planned?

According to the official Tygem forums they are working on an android client now.
Seriously? You got a link please? I ask a question on the Tygem Facebook page wall about porting the client on linux based os. They told me it was not currently planned.

Will be a great news: to be able to play on ...

Re: GoPanda client

Another nice discovery: when you have double digit captures apparently PandaGo can't show you how many you have since the box doesn't expand at all, even when the window is more than wide enough.

Honestly, is anybody maintaining this code at all, or is IGS trying to will itself out of existence ...

Re: Strange game

Your first four plays seem fine ( although 6 at C5 is theoretically better ). You are going for corners and then sides. That is good.
But when the battle is joined at move 9, you seem to have no goals. So get a beginner's joseki book ( maybe '38 Basic Joseki' ). Try to figure out why joseki is ...

Re: Things you don't like about Go.

I don't like Go in the sense that it laid bare all my shortcomings like laziness, impulsivity, eagerness, greed and so on. It's a game in which your true personality reflected so much.

As if the goban was just a mirror of your own soul. And that could be quite disturbing sometimes, especially when ...

Re: Does losing hurt?

When I play, I give my best. If I lose, my opponent was simply better than me at my best. It happens (frequently and that's a good thing). When it's me who wins, that's the opposite.

In fact the only game I'm not satisfied with are the games in which I don't give my best for a reason or an other ...

Re: A game for review

Thx for the answers all of you.

R2 is a good move I havent seen. I don't understand J16 move in one of the EdLee Variation. I don't see that K11 was a shared vital point.

Bill P13 was astounding.

I haven't yet realized that shapes were so important in a go game. I just try to surround some groups ...

Re: Click happy when playing online

If online you think you got the right move, get your hand of the mouse. Count til 3, look again at the goban and your move, is this best you can play in this situation? If the answer is always yes, let's get play. Otherwise...

This is what I do to prevent the pavlovian way of playing which can ...
