Features everyone secretly wants on OGS but will never be implemented

And then you play a move that results in minus 50 points… :joy:

After every move, katago evaluates how many points it gains compared to passing, and reports this to both players.

sounds like useful idea for post game AI review
current “points compared to bot move” is not very objective metric
If your move is worse than pass, then its mistake indeed

Or performance index: (AI score after your move - AI score after passing)/(AI score after AI’s move - AI score after passing) x 100.

Performance 100 means your move is as good as AI. Performance 0 means your move is as bad as passing.

Do you just cap it at 100? I imagine near the end of a game, if I self atari and the bot would’ve just played some dame, maybe ai score after ai move and after passing could be quite small.

Could be like 18/0.1 *100 =18,000

It could be more than 100 if you find a better move than AI (this rarely happens but is possible), or negative if your move is worse than passing (e.g. self-atari). If passing or a dame is the bot’s top move than the formula can’t be computed (division by zero).

Make this board actually playable.
Every user can add stones or remove them in real time.
Like with chat - history is not available for everyone, just forever changing board.

When you report players, there is a mod that will contact you or at least a message/feature that this report has been read.

Alternative to points and % graphs in post game AI review:
show which rank you need to win from current game position


black line is rank of your opponent
if on current move game position is bad, you need to be a dan to still win
if on current move game position is good, its enough to be ddk


if you are [4k] , its safe to play 1-1 point here

Fast tournament setting where in each round, the last board still playing is disqualified.

The most popular public live game between humans being watched gets shown.

A minimum of three others besides the players must be present. The players must either have a certain minimum of ranked games or be verified through an organization. The preference could be league/tournament play. Also gotta consider rating.

So most popular league game then most popular general game by viewership then rating to settle ties. Every 60 seconds to 5 mins, the shown game may change unless interrupted for a scheduled match.

Wrong thread I think. This is somewhat planned.

Shouldn’t this be fairly doable? Not sure why it’s in this thread… am I missing something?

I guess maybe because we offer our own AI review and don’t want to push too much traffic off site :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah that seemed clear to me that OGS would not propose something that directly conflict with its own offering

Dunno… anoek is very generous and community minded… I don’t think it’s as far fetched as it would be for a more profit driven dev :thinking: still probably less likely than likely… but not as outright “no” as some other things in this thread haha

What about sensei library link then. Writing “atari” → automatic link to Atari at Sensei's Library

Yeah perfect answer to my proposal.

I understand that it would hurt OGS own interest.
But I was wondering if a browser extension adding buttons to other sites like Sensei, tripleko, Gokibitz, etc. would be against OGS terms of use :thinking:

Because I’m lazy and really like direct links

maybe if you write {{senseis library title (case insensitive)}}, it displays without the {{}} as a link to sensei’s
