Diplomatic Go đź—ˇ The Second Game

End of Round 23

image@le_4TC and image@PiggyStardust collided on their first move at J12, but both managed to place a stone at their second choice. Meanwhile, image@Haze_with_a_Z collided for their first choice with a preexisting stone, but managed to place their second choice at J12.

image@yebellz and image@Leira both placed their first choice.

Of the stones on the board without liberties, image@le_4TC’s stone at H12 is “old” and thus is removed. This gives a new liberty to image@Haze_with_a_Z’s stone at J12, which remains on the board.

Any player with 8 stones or less on the board is eliminated at the start of Round 24.
All players enter Round 24 with at least 9 stones, therefore nobody is eliminated.
