General Go Discussion

ok, i don’t understand much about this. let me know when you find the games you need. :slightly_smiling_face:

23

Hash value of the game id concatenated with a secret password (revealed later) should do it, though that’s getting a bit technical.

Yes, after thinking about it again, that should work.

When is a good time for you? Evenings in Europe would work well for me.

26

let’s limit ourselves to 2 hours from 18:00 to 20:00 (±30 minutes) Moscow time or from 20:00 to 22:00

upd: this is the time when I am free every day. Otherwise offer your time, maybe I will be free

I’m into predictions too, but mostly just for fun. If you’re up for sharing your predictions or just chatting about it, I’d love to join in. No worries about the English.

This is wonderful, I’m very glad to see you! We can chat, share our experiences with predictions, and even practice if you’d like.

What do you use for divination? And if you don’t mind, could you share if you’ve ever predicted the outcome of Go games?

I used to be into tarot for about two years and tried different decks, but the results were so-so. Only occasionally, when I was inspired, did I manage to predict something accurately.

That will work well, I’ll tell you on the day before, I’m a bit busy currently. This Sunday should work though.

@悟震飂 , are you available now? Then l’d pick the first three games.

32

A coin flip could predict a (practically) two-outcome game with 50% accuracy

I’m free, we can get started.

If you’re still around, game 1:

  • Question: Black or white, who will win?
  • md5 hash of {salt}: e081947e82be2067f4482c5e2dc0bdbd
  • md5 hash of {gameId}{salt}: 5b70fb86f5adb450c7ec6c781c2a8afa

It’s late, so I’ll limit it to one game today.

The game has ended already, it’s hard to find good games :sweat_smile:, but we’ll figure it out. Let’s try again on Tuesday.

36

It’s a pity that the game is already over, I was a little late. Let’s do it on Tuesday, I’ll try to make it by 18:00

37

I have never tried to predict a game that has already been decided upon, I am not sure that this is possible, but probably black won on the deal?

the game was very tense, there were a lot of fights

How would it matter if the game is already over? If you really think you can predict games with 80% why not bet and never work a day in your life again?

Well, it’s called predicting, not postdicting.

Let’s call it our test game, it was this one:

White won by resignation.

It’s always good to try something for the first time :sweat_smile: :smile:

I’m free now too, we can try

oh, interesting. i’ll write that down. I know it’s possible to predict something that has already happened (for example, in the form of a riddle), but probably there are slightly different mechanics than a regular prediction
