Hi! Blindgod and I agreed to play a game under the Japanese ruleset with -0.5 komi, open books.
Hide tags are treated as usual: the players may not read them until the end of the game, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

I think it's good that the coin flipped this way, because otherwise it would have contradicted the principle "corner - side - center". Choice of hoshi (as well as tengen?) suggests that my opponent prefers influence and quick development, but in his game against bakekoq it looks like he goes for territory. Let's see what'll happen in this game.
I'll take the adjacent corner and let blindgod choose whether we'll play parallel or diagonal fuseki, or maybe some uncommon opening

I copy & pasted the diagram code from the previous post and then added my move but it seems that it won't accept it (having the same problem in my game with EdLee). Any thoughts?
EDIT: thanks.

It seems that there are unnecessary spaces before $$.

Up to this point the game went similar to blindgod vs EdLee
Let's deviate here.
On the choice of direction: uppper left hoshi is farther than lower right kakari, so if I manage to build a wall facing the left side, it will claim a bigger moyo. The only issue that bothers me here is that c6 cannot be completely neutralized yet

Jeez, it's only 10:30 am and already it's 86' Fahrenheit (30' Celsius). Anyhoo... I believe this is a standard response.

Click the "Quote" button on YOUR last post -- NOT your opponent's, as you may inadvertently see his Hidden comments.

I haven't been using the quote button. I've been copying the diagram code then hitting the post reply button. I then paste the code into the reply and change it to show my move. To be honest, it didn't occur to me to use the quote button.
