Life In 19x19

Also can you view games after you played them and is there sgfs of them somewhere on this app/server?

If you connect through a web browser, you can see the last game and Export is an option which results in the moves and players in SGF format. This is in a text field on the screen. You will have ...

I just started playing COSUMI. I like that it has an HTML5 mode so I don't have to worry about Flash versions.

I'm somewhere around 14k. It was giving a bit of a run on 9x9 at Level 0, but I am now winning by more than komi more often than not. Against Level 1 on 13x13, I am also wining more than ...

Is there any way to get copies of games played on IGS before the current account?

I originally started playing on IGS in 1995.

I seem to remember that there was an archive, but I've been unable to find it.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Traveller

That is exactly how I feel!

Higher resolution for me means 1920x1200 in a display smaller than 22".

The closest I found from Apple was an iMac that has 1920x1080 in 21.5" and not as a separate device. 27" to get more pixels is not what I'm looking for. For starters, it will not fit on my desk.

Am I missing something else ...

Just a note.

My installation of Firefox, current as of the last time I checked for new versions, properly opens SmartGo for SGFs from both OGS and DGS. I have no extra plug-ins for handling files or similar content. I'll have to look at the configuration, but my installation is very vanila, just ...

My biggest gripe with current LCD displays is that there are resolutions that you can get for laptops that are not available for desktops at any price.

Over a decade ago, I got a Dell laptop with a 1600x1200 display in 15". More recently, I spec'd a laptop for my father with 1920x1080 in 15".

The ...

I have found it the most reliable way to get a quick game in.

I prefer to play with Chinese rules, but, if that were allowed in automatches, processing a preference and displaying the ruleset used would add additional programming to be accomplished, tested, and maintained.

Thanks for the detailed response.

A note here and an update to the SL OGS/Status page would go a long way toward providing good distribution to the OGS community when the site itself isn't available. I'm not on Twitter, but a feed for status there (and other periodic annoucements such as Tournament ...

Many years ago, the last time I was playing in tournaments, you could buy a set of stickers with the move numbers on them. These could be attached to a kifu during the game.

Does anyone know where I can find these? I found these much easier than recording by hand as you didn't lose your place and ...

I find it best to have music only, or vocals in a language I don't know at all.

Playing Turn-Based games is not the best way to improve, but it is better than nothing. Is it a 'good' way? That depends on the individual. Games played is a strong indicator of development.

I am stronger now that when I started over a decade ago and I have played by far more Turn-Based games than ...

Or put another way, when do new players get added?
