Interesting results (to me anyways) from round 1:

Kang Guhong (amateur) > Rui Naiwei 9p
Yu Zhiying 5p > Tong Mengcheng 5p (both power-players on Tygem; trace(P) vs. tmch)
Yun Sungsik (amateur) > Suh Ninguk 9p (joonki on Tygem)

I've been keeping track of the results on my own since igokisen's site hasn't been updating as fast as I'd like, which you may find here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3197383/lg.html

Thanks for posting the results!

I think a few Chinese players' name might be misspelled, probably because they are spelled that way on Korean website?

He Jin(3d) --> He Xin(3d) (何鑫)
Yan Zheming(3d) --> Yan Zaiming(3d) (严在明)
Dong Mengcheng(4d) --> Tong Mengcheng(4d) (童梦成)
Xu Yijin(1d) --> Xu Zexin(1d) (徐泽鑫)
Xia Jiankun(4d) --> Xia Chenkun(4d) (夏晨琨)
Wang Yixin(4d) --> Wang Zejin(4d) (王泽锦)
Hu Renmin(4d) --> Hu Ranmin(4d) (胡然闵)
Chun Guangya(6d) --> Wu Guangya(6d) (邬光亚)

I just took the romanization from igokisen (and everything else really), I'll update the names later.

That's what I thought. I have seen Wu Guangya spelled as Chun Guangya quite a few times. Was "Chun" Korean romanization of Wu(乌)?

No, Wu Guangya in Korean is 우광야, which would be romanized as Wu Guangya. It might be a Japanese thing, since igokisen is a Japanese site.

I think in Korean, they would write '乌' as '烏', and pronounce it as 'oh' (오).

Aha! Someone in comments on a Japanese site suggested this theory, which seems plausible.

Random Internet Person wrote:
邬はもちろんwuで、
鶉がchunだから、鶉と勘違いしたのでしょう

With "邬", of course being "wu", "鶉" is "chun", so it looks like just a mix up with "鶉".


So perhaps somebody mixed up the Chinese character for his name, thought it was "鶉", which is pronounced as "Chun" in Japanese. At least if we want to trust some random person on the Internet.

That is indeed plausible! As a matter of fact 鹑 is the second character in the Chinese word 鹌鹑 meaning quail, and is also pronounced as "Chun". It's just that in Chinese 邬 is a relatively common family name while nobody uses 鹑 for names, so it is unlikely to mix them up.

3 ladies (Choi Jeong, Kown Julie and Wang Sangwin) and 2 amateurs (Park Joomin and Shim Jaeik) survived.

Xie Erhao was so close...

So what is the "percentage survival rate" for Korea and China? (I know Japan's is 0%)

Choi Cheolhan 9p was defeated by Gu Lingyi. I see him doing well to play against the strong players all the time, I hope he goes far.

If we assume that each player has a 50% chance of winning against any other player in any one game, just that metric shows how hard it must be... Even poor An Khukyhun was knocked out... Anyway, I have result tables to make...
