I'm not entirely sure what it's about either.
I guess that explains why it doesn't make much sense
I'm sorry, you're not going to be pleased with my post, but I'm going to say it anyway because no one ever gets better without going through the pain of negative review.
I didn't like it. It's fine ...

Re: Rules debate at Cotsen
Funny because I played in a tournament (only once, I'm just a beginner) and I was never told which rules were used for scoring. I used territory scoring without giving it much thought. I just checked the website of that tournament, and the one were I'm planning to go next month, and couldn't find ...

Re: Girlfriend And Go
Well, with all these men failing to interest their girlfriend/wife into the game, I feel like I have to bring some feminine point of view, of only so that Stefany won't feel too lonely in this thread ;-p

Re: September DDK Swiss
Maere and Rafa: some thoughts on your second game.
Once again, thanks for the detailed review. You bring some positions in a brand new perspective (like your considerations on move 15 or move 31. After you said it, it suddenly becomes obvious

So, I just played Rafa and it's a tie. The games were very exciting.

Re: We could write books!
Anyway, before you've written a few novels, all of your writing IS crap.
And for anybody who doesn't believe this, just read my blog .
I'm not sure what you mean by this... with writing I meant "novel writing" in this context. Writing articles or other non-fiction work is obviously a related ...

Re: We could write books!
This seems all well and good, but remember that you're offering a secondhand lecture to a kid who has by her own account already written 8 (in words: eight) books.
This is impressive and worth praise, especially for someone so young. If she has written so much, then she certainly has discipline ...

Re: We could write books!
I don't think that is necessarily true[...]
Yes, this is what I have heard from several writers, you must treat it as a job if you want to get anywhere. Writing (and painting, playing music etc) is not that different from eg programming, and what programmer would keep his job if he only coded ...

Re: September DDK Swiss
Thank you for the review, Chew 
In the first game I made many mistakes, but other mistakes on the part of my opponent allowed me to recover from them as the game went on. He was not so kind with me the second time.
nnk is a lot stronger than he thinks! I look forward to the next round.

Re: September DDK Swiss
I'm the one who told SinK to make it a draw. Easy wins are no fun I don't want to get a full point for not playing at all.
I have not heard of Kiethlard since then at all, but he might have a very good reason for not showing up, I have no idea. We'll see whether Kiethlard shows up next round or not ...

Re: September Tournament: 19x19 DDK
Noodley: I like most of the decisions you made early on. A few thoughts:
12: consider attaching at C17. It's not the only option, but it's a useful option to remember. I believe that Fwiffo used that, or something like it, in our Malkovich game.
I discussed the game with noodley. We talked about ...
