Sack a few stones to build a giant center framework. So here my goal is clear: to simply stop him from doing so. Is it important for me to ensure I eat the few stones he offers to me? Well, it's kind of big I guess, but really I think gaining control of the center gains higher priority here. Wouldn't you say something like the diagram below is better for me than taking the stones?

i was afraid he might play that...
i guess this will be a complicated fight for both of us.
i will have to say that black has better fighting position for now..
but i believe that i am stronger player so i will come out ahead somehow..

i have no idea what he will play! and really dont care.
i will do my reading after he plays his move.

i probably never be 3/4 dan but even if i somehow manage one day i ll never, ever be able to say things like this. :salute:
its a major part of the fun of MW's game for me

Seems like M11 already ended up making White heavier (instead of well sacrificed). Now I like Black.

ps. Am I the only person who really wants to post childish things like

I'm not under the impression that Araban's 4-5-6-7 will get played soon. Exchanging inside moves for outside moves is always a last resort.

Just O9? Though running with a heavy group is painful...

A question regarding the lower side: Is White O2 painful if ignored? I ask this with whether M3 is a key point to aim at for later for black or is neutralized by the White O2 being some degree of sente in mind.

I think O2 has large endgame followups, but it's not anything like sente at the moment. Might be different if black was totally sealed in.
That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.
