:D

I'll send you a pm soon for scheduling - right now I'm pretty swamped for the next few days. Looking forward to it though!

Oops. I thought I was still waiting for SoDesuNe to contact me, but it seems he sent a message a week ago that I only got today. I believe we will be playing sometime after Sept. 13th - he offered to resign if that is too late, but I hope that is not the case.

Yap, we can start scheduling now.
If I understand it correctly, Niklas and I are ten hours apart and since evening times for him are early morning times for me, I guess we will be playing on a weekend : )

One thing, which might interfere is whether or not I'm participating in a tournament next weekend. I will know by Tuesday, until then how about keeping an eye at 10am PST/8pm GMT+1 DST on either Saturday or Sunday?

10am PDT on Sunday should be okay - can't do Saturday mornings I'm afraid, but Saturday evenings may also be an option.

I'm sorry, at the moment I can't say, when I have the time for the next games. This week is pretty busy with work and next week awaits a short vacation. Maybe after that, but then the new semester begins.

I'll post an update when I have my schedule.

Sorry for this late response. Is that the same time we played earlier (10 am PDT/8pm GMT +1)? If that's the case, I can only play Sunday this week. If you would be willing to go three hours later on Saturday, I could do that as well (I am busy until about 12:45pm PDT on Saturday).

Yep, it's the same time.
Saturday 11pm GMT+1 DST // 1pm PDT is fine with me. Sunday 8pm GMT+1 DST // 10am PDT, too.

Nikolas73 (Black) vs. SoDesuNe (White): B+4.5

It is save to say, that this game wasn't a good one for neither of us.

I felt, playing out the Joseki and ending in Gote was too slow, \

WL[1731.265];B[qj]
C[SoDesuNe:
I don't know about this move. It's certainly okay, but personaly \
I think it's a bit slow. I would have either enclosed the top \
right corner and let White finish the Joseki, thus having two \
"secure" corners in Sente or approached the bottom right corner.]
BL[1714.59];W[oc]
C[SoDesuNe:
I like territory, that because I played the low Kakari. Maybe \
it would have been more consistent too play it high with my still \
to be established "influence"-group on the left side.
Furthermore, Black's attachment gave him exactly what he wanted \
with his R10-stone.

Overall, bad move by White.]

Suboptimal play by Black. Here White gets a free forcing move \
to make his group more stable.
Black should just have extended to E14.]

Perhaps I would have chosen a different Joseki for Black to form \

Ha ha ha, I just got a beautiful insight by a Dan player into how Go should be played and subsequently of how this game here should have turned out ^^

Beginning big with showing how Black's stones in the upper right could have died easily - until the very end, just scratching the fact of how White could have killed H14, leading over to show how terrible wrong White's direction of play was (is) in the bottom left corner and actually all over the bottom (starting with the choice of the Joseki in the bottom right corner) to finally conclude that move 10 lost the game : D
Okay, not that bad but move 10 was dubious. At least it got some meaning by Black's choice of Joseki, making White strong in his own sphere of influence (same mistake White did in the lower right).

Well, well - if someone points your nose on something, it all appears to be so clear that it almost turns transparent.

Thanks for the comments SoDesuNe - my only addition would be that yes, I originally chose move 29 to help out the F3 stone.

For our next games - is the same time this weekend good? 2pm PDT on Saturday and 11am PDT on Sunday?
