Automatic scoring, no more marking dead groups.

Post by Ootakamoku »

WBaduks new client automatically calculates the score at the end of the game, no more marking dead groups. But can one truly rely on it for complex L&D. Does anyone have information on how it works?

The wbaduk pc client will update automatically when you start it, but you need to run it in admin mode. After the update it should work again.

At least this eliminates the problem of players trying to unmark dead stones just before you click done, so maybe the trade is worth it. :)

I don't know how good Wbaduk automatic scoring will be, but during years of playing on Tygem I only had the score miscalculated once (in a not so complex seki if I remember well).
