What are the rules to Weilianqi? Is it a cooperative variant of Go?
Yea, I wanted a game where you can play several people together of any skill level, this is achieved with a secondary score derived from multiplying all players territories: the optimal score is a draw!
Wei-lian-qi means surround ...

Re: My hexagonal Go variant, Keil, now playable online
Intriguing. I am also interested in novel forms of Go.
I made a hexagonal version with collaborative elements, practising how to connect well is useful for society more so than learning how to defeat others. Written in Julia: https://github.com/jhlq/Weilianqi.jl

Re: Leela zero install on Ubuntu
you mean pasting sudo ln -s /usr/include/eigen3/Eigen/ /usr/include/Eigen
While still in the leela-zero/src folder?
"impossible to create the symbolic link '/usr/include/Eigen': the file exists"
With the / in /usr the path is absolute so you can invoke it from any folder.

Re: Next game after a 90-point loss(!)
Why not B17 at P4?
B21 is maybe better as an extension on the left, white can't easily make territory by leaning on the black group.
W28 should probably follow up on the N17 stones, for example at O16.
W32: no need for arcane invasions with the left side so open.
W36: this move doesn't seem to ...

Re: Game from today
B25 seems too early given the large open areas in the top right.
After W82 the peep at N4 looks promising.
After W96 Q18 Q17 R18 is a good sequence.
The B115 exchange removes the clamp after connecting.
B221 doesn't seem necessary, if white exchanges J13 H13 then K13 and L19 are still miai.

Re: Does playing a high dan bot helps improving?
I find it more relaxing to play bots. Playing ranked games can be so stressful, like writing code that cannot be edited, whenever there is a compile error the whole program has to be discarded... The undo button makes development much smoother, any "typos" that make the strategy simply not run can ...

Re: 10 Psychological principles in winning a game
5 is important, if you play like you should simply win because of a rank difference it is easy to get into trouble.

Re: If you had $100b to spend on Go, how would you spend it?
A school can be built in Africa for $1k, so in every African country hundreds of schools could be built and staffed for under $100M. Here people would learn Go and also how to create Gobans.
A Goban could likely be built for a dollar. There are around half a billion children in Africa and normal ...

Re: ladder software for clubs?
It should be fairly easy task to write such a software. (I might even consider doing it as a "hobby" project, if someone presents the requirements - this is not a promise or commitment to anything)
