In this position, due to the liberty at "a" and the double-ko "abuse" then black marked stones become uncapturable (=> alive). How do you correct this result?

First, in step 1 of the first iteration we get that the marked stones are alive.

The intention was that the marked stones can not be removed in the second iterations because they are marked alive in the first iteration, so now we can show that the black stones are dead in step 1 of the second iteration.

Maybe we should take it to another thread, as was so kindly suggested, but I hope I am communicating my meaning.

Edit ==========
Now I realize that we get a double-ko seki because some of the black stones are marked alive in iteration 1. I am not sure this is a problem or unexpected, how about white needing to play the approach move to capture? Anyway it was a good point.

Or the problem was overlooked by J89 authors, and will be fixed in the future (with some hack like requiring a normal pass of either player before passing for a ko a second time)
1)
If you use "pass once per ko" then black can pass immediatly and wins the game because the two white marked stones are dead in the confirmation phase

without using "pass once per ko", in order to win, black must continue at least one move.
After then black passes and wins the game.

Nice position, thank you. Even if harmless here since the result is the same (B can force the reinforcement with the same play either way), this does show a case where the attacker might need to play the same ko twice in confirmation.

Alternating systematically a "ko ban requiring an explicit pass-for-ko" and a "normal ko ban" seems to resolve the problem.

That idea sounds more complicated and conceptually less sound than my #2 alternative above. Anyway, the Nihon Ki-in is probably aware of the problem by now and will choose an official solution in their next version.

If would be nice if you could use more descriptive names for your inventions.

Pass for individual ko ban erases that ko ban. Recapture into any ko-shape** is disabled, until after all ko bans have been erased.

Would this mean I cannot recapture in a ko until I passed for all my potential recaptures? Or until both players passed for all their potential recaptures? I think I misunderstand something since neither seems to work. Maybe you mean players can also pass for potential recaptures of the opponent?

One fundamental (but implicite) Japanese understanding seems to be that ko-fights shall not play any decisive role during status confirmation for determining the L&D-status of groups.

We have learned that it are the double-ko, in conjunction with a third ko-shape, that are potentially problematic.

If recapture into any ko-shape (with former ko-ban) is disabled, as long as there are still unlifted ko-bans on the board, nobody will really want to capture into a double-ko. Unless they wanted to discourage their opponent from recapturing into a third ko. But this is never a topic in the L&D examples.

The player, who wanted to recapture into a third ko, would never capture into a double-ko, as he can be very sure that his opponent will never lift the ko-ban for "his" ko-shape to recapture.

Thus said, my interpretation of the current J89 legal text has the same effect as my earlier loose saying "There is NO double-ko during status confirmation."
Only after ALL former ko-bans have been lifted, the board returns to the status of after the game stopped, i.e. there are no active ko-bans on the board, similar to the beginning of status confirmation.

As a matter of course, if a player fills a ko-shape, the respective ko-ban (that his opponent is likely to never lift) is also erased. Just because the ko-shape has vanished.

But his opponent will flip a double ko once, and not pass there afterwards - and this would be enough to prevent him from recapturing into the third ko permanently?

Yes.

But in J89's L&D-examples "flipping a double-ko once" would only lengthen the sequence. The "opponent" will simply capture through after the players "pass-for-ko".

Sorry still unclear for me. How would this work in moonshine life for example? Black tries to take ko(s) on the left, then flips the right once and doesn't pass there to keep a permanent non-passed-for ko on the board, blocking the ko(s) at the left as well?

Many years ago I discovered a patch for the "pass-for-ko rule. Even with it there wolud be other flaws in the J1989 rules, so I didn't bother to release it. Anyway:

In the confirmation phase:

A player may not recapture a ko before making a pass to recapture that particular ko.
A player may not recapture a ko for the second time before making two passes to recapture that particular ko.
A player may not recapture a ko for the third time before making three passes to recapture that particular ko.
Etc.

This keep the double ko seki alive. If there is additional stuff attached, a player may rotate the double ko seki n times to gain n tenukies to resolve the thing.
