I don't know if it works, but it must be played. Anything else would lead the observers to think that you are waffling.

Basically, Kirby has to just stay on his toes and refuse to needlessly compromise.
He has a huge advantage, and he should be mindful of that, as long as it doesn't detract from his willingness to fight.
Basically, he should be like this:
I hope we get to see Kirby sipping tea leisurely atop his Charizard in this game quite soon.

(Yes, I realise is a silly move - it's more to highlight that the purpose I think Kirby had in mind will be hard to see through I think)

Sometimes it is difficult for me to be patient. For these forum games, especially, I want to see what happens quickly... But I have to wait.
I guess it isn't much better with online games, either. The pace is faster, but sometimes I am not patient when I really should sit down and read something out.
I wonder what I can do to increase my patience... I wonder how I can make myself read when I want to play quickly.
I guess the good thing is, in this case at least, I am forced to play slowly (relatively speaking, at least ).

Sometimes I also feel that the smiley face icon looks a bit sarcastic. I did not mean sarcasm in my last post. But that face is staring at me with some sort of yellow-faced sarcasm, like it is taunting me...
I think it's gotta be those eyebrows...

I guess I might still get cut this way... But locally, this move is too good to pass up.
If he cuts me, I will fight back.

The exchange of the last two black moves and the last two white moves has been terrible for black. Black has surrounded one stone. White has managed to separate two black groups.
