Simultaneous Fractional Go Game 1

I’m not trying to capture the J8 stones this round, my vague hint last round didn’t work, so I’m going for some other capturable group. Of course I do need help for this, but there’s a decent chance @Jon_Ko and @Maharani play the obvious moves.

Sorry everyone. Submitted a move.

I’m sorry, but I’m afraid they aren’t obvious enough :sweat_smile:. Anyway I think it is a little bit late to change my submission (again).

This time the delay is on me, sorry about that. I was busy yesterday.

Again, I’m sorry, @Vsotvep. I figured that you wanted to capture those stones, but I did not know which of the three moves I should play.

But I specifically stated that I was not going to capture those three stones :confused:

It doesn’t matter anyways, since terrific played D8.

Yes, I wanted to prevent a connection there. I should have played D8 instead.

Well, yeah, my hope was this:

Where terrific wouldn’t have played D8, then we could’ve captured the pink group.

Yes, but that was more than we could hope for. If one of us had played D8, we maybe could have forced terrific to play there for a few turns and try to build four eyes on the bottom in the meantime. But now it’s too late for that. I’ve still a tiny hope to save my stones though.

I’ll try to capture the obvious pink group @yebellz

I’m connecting at J13.

T12 looks like a nice move.

T12 is indeed very nice, but only if I don’t play it, @Maharani. I had to figure it out twice, because I forgot in between.

Assuming Blue-Black plays T12 we could have a good opportunity here. Or if they play in one of their eyes instead, it might be better to wait. Should we try it this round? @yebellz @terrific

I agree.

Alright, submitting it.

By the way, on mobile, the second screenshot doesn’t look blurrier than the first to me, only on computer. :slight_smile:

Okay, I hope I’ve calculated this right. I’ll play O11, and then I think the best moves for my team are @yebellz L9, @terrific R11. (If we fail, I think I’d rather have my group of 3 killed by Blue-White than anything else.) Does that make sense?

They have some ways to counteract it so I will consider changing my move if it seems like it’s going in a bad direction, or of course if you guys have better things to do.
