Move 43 shows you lost completely tracks on the game. Would have been good time to resign. Future moves don’t matter that much

Interesting is how you failed on this side of the board in a hectic fight. If you have a look on your own i will try to answer any question you have.

You mean move 193? Q8 felt right, but I didn’t play it, I don’t know why. I regret that more than 43.

192 is white move. Anyway, no, i m still on that 43 side

193, my bad.

Consider that fight you put at the bottom. Figure back what you wanted and what result you got. AI suggestions are quite clear there you can use them. As a first step, you have to figure what happened there then we can discuss other choices This is where this game went out of control.

Well since you asked so nicely :rofl:, here goes:

Mind you, I am far from a pro player, and am actually a bit rusty as I have not played much for a while, but here are my ideas to consider for future (not to take as universal truths).

Generally speaking, I would not say you have made too many big mistakes, but rather that a number of smaller mistakes added up.

I generally liked your direction of play (until late in the game), but what seemed the most prevalent issue to me, was one of shape. Not sure how much you have encountered the idea of shape yet, but to sum it up for you (or other players that might be reading this):

  • Generally speaking, most humans only read a few moves ahead, if that. We (as in amateur players) are not capable of visualizing multiple branching paths of several moves…
  • That means that while we try to chose a certain direction in which the game will evolve for us, we are rarely completely sure about what moves EXACTLY will form this future
  • To combat this uncertainty and create better chances for us in the future we often place the stones (roughly in the direction we want) to form certain shapes that we know from experience are easy to connect later/form strong connection/have potential to create eyes/etc. Depending on what we expect from the group.

A lot of times in your game I thought the idea was good, but you chose unsafe connections, etc to fulfill these ideas which is why it eventually fell apart a bit.

At the beginning it also seemed you were a bit reluctant to abandon a few stones and adapt, though it might have been something else. So just for the record, some stones are expendable :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you :slight_smile:

In case you were wondering about some resources:

A while ago I made this VERY BASIC introduction to shapes:

If you preffer books this one is <3

And this is almost a legendary lecture everyone always recommended, but I never saw because it seemed too long and has bad audio (yes, I am spoiled) :smiley: But I am sure there must be something to it.

Here.

===============================
GPG Cheat sheet

A small guide to little things

Create a key

::

gpg --gen-key

Sign a file

::

gpg -u {KEY_ID} --clearsign <file_name>

Move a key-pair privately

  1. export the public and private keys and encrypt the pair::

    gpg --output - --export-secret-key {KEY_ID} | cat <(gpg --output - --export {KEY_ID}) - | gpg --armor --output keys.asc --symmetric --cipher-algo AES256

#. move the file (keys.asc) to the other computer.

#. import the key on the other computer::

gpg --no-use-agent --output - keys.asc | gpg --import

#. shred the file for good measure::

shred -n 3 -u keys.asc

Thanks to Dark Otter

Encrypt a file

::

gpg --output out.gpg --encrypt --recipient paul@example.com input

GPG a directory

Encrypt::

I must be missing something … This is relevant to this thread because?

I think it’s about as relevant to the thread as the message of the original poster is relevant to the subject of the forum thread.

New trick for gaining attention for a review request.
Wonder what Gia will think of for the next review request.

How about?

The world is flat

and so ...

is a go board, so pls review this game.

I thought most people agree with this though. Not like “ogs bad”

No idea what this is telling me, but the link is dead.

Try man gpg instead, those docs are pretty reliable

Thanks. I think I have a slightly better idea what it’s all about now, although I’ve never bothered to find out the details of how public key encryption works. I wonder if there was any particular reason for the post? Should I now be worried about security when using (“bad”?) OGS?
