Correct!
That is actually the game position on the next move — or rather, from the next move in my thinking. I was dumb and forgot that Black lost a stone in the old taisha variation, but the problem still works.
Well done!
The game is Shusai–Shuei 1902, their antepenultimate encounter (in Waltheri): Tamura Yasuhisa (6p) vs. Honinbo Shuei (8p) | Waltheri's go pattern search. Shuei died in 1907, Shusai in 1940.
Wait, are we done?
'Fraid so~
I guess it’s gennan’s turn now.
Oh! I didn’t expect that.
But I also expected you to wait with calling it until others had made their guesses
Usually we get a day or two for submissions, but I guess it was the Black Friday of rounds.
Oh, I haven’t been following the game.
I wasn’t aware of the etiquette, my bad.
Well, I see three main options here:
Note on my own submissions:
When there’s a wall thing, I consistently choose the wrong side.
I was not fully correct. My C10 stone should be at C9.
I would like to give the next turn to Gia (if that doesn’t stress her out too much ).
My guess would have matched @gennan’s guess except I would have placed L4 at M6
15 stones are missing.
1 point per correct guess, and any commentary worth more than my own, ie any commentary, welcome.
Y’all have about 2 days
Is it a pro game?
The players have a p after their name, and it seems official, don’t know if it counts. I had a bit difficulty to find it tbh.
