Share your games with 6+ groups

Another remarkable point is the result. White won by 1 1/2 points. But realize that this means Black won on the board by four points before komi

Yeah, it looks like I misremembered.

Nice fork! I’m always so happy to see someone find my code useful!

By the way, I think I noticed a bug. Using the mark tool on empty space seems to cause the app to hang in an endless loop.

good catch! I’m not a front end programmer usually so a simple code base with no dependencies or frameworks is :heart_eyes:

Today Shin Jinseo showed us, the number of groups have nothing on him

Shin Jinseo (Black) vs Li Weiqing (White)

6 black groups vs just 2(or 3) white groups.

Did you try to have even more? Seems there is still some wasted stones/space. (30+19=49)

No, but feel free to have a go at more.

I get 7 on a 9x9.
Give me the idea to propose it as exercise for full beginners to practice what is two eyes and connection/cut between the groups.

Maybe one could squeeze in more with seki :slight_smile:

Hehe next exercice for beginners in view, to practice seki. Surely you get more groups if a group is a alived connected chain of stones. If’s like two groups for the prize of one, although a seki takes a bit more place to work.
So here on 9x9

That’s 10 groups.

31 groups can live without seki on 19x19.

132 groups, for a given definition of the term, can live in seki on 19x19.

Still 13x13, @Atorrante ?

Quite a nice design both (3 more groups with 49 stones to use only…, and the way to make Sekis with as less stones as possible)

No thanks, I pass.

Perfect for wallpaper for …

Why black has a group with 2 eyes and white doesn’t?

Why not?

Ah, perhaps I should have said using seki, if the living group is also being counted.

Linguistic point.
