Parallel Fractional Go Game 4

One important thing I want to add: In normal go your groups need two eyes, because if you have just one, your one opponent can take it away. Here everyone has four opponents, so they can take away four of your eyes, thus you need five eyes to live.

Or get fancy with connecting to your teammates and the opponent who shares the same secondary color.

Round 6

On the lower side @Gooplet white_magenta attaches and jumps towards the center. @Jon_Ko white_green attaches on top, which turns out to be a wedge in between @Feijoa s black_magenta one point jump.

In the upper right @benjito black_green and @A_Normal_Name white_cyan collide at blacks cutting point, giving rise to another 4-coloured stone.

In the upper left team black moves out swiftly with a double maneuver of @yebellz black_cyan and @fuseki3 brown2_v2, also dividing @martin3141 s brown1 positions.

@A_Normal_Name that’s not what I see. Could it be that this image includes your “staged move” for the next round?

Shhh :shushing_face:


Jokes aside, I wonder if it would make sense to have the last move indicator on the “staged” move instead of the previous round once a move is played.

The first capture of the game is claimed by @Gooplet white_magenta by filling the last blue liberty of a stone placed in the very first round.

The situation is tense on the lower side, where @Feijoa black_magenta and @Jon_Ko white_green continue their close up battle.

In the upper right @benjito black_green descends to the second line, while @A_Normal_Name white_cyan plays a tigers mouth towards the center.

In the upper left @fuseki3 brown2_v2 and @yebellz black_cyan continue to press the advantage for Team Black. @martin3141 brown1 jumps loosely towards the center.

Game just advanced again

This time, I was the last player to play, so it was quite neat to immediately see all of the moves pop-up when I played.

I think the upper right group/area looks safe after the last round and the lower right area black group needs attention unless we’ll sacrifice it, or tenuki to a different area, but it’s possibly complicated to tenuki for me ^^

What’s the value of the lower right black group, given that it’s also white? It’s hard for me to imagine how that might develop if we somehow keep it alive.
