So in this game, by the rule, can I say left side is black territory, even though white could’ve captured some of black stones, had it not agreed to end the game?
Here is the original thread:
If we’re going to talk about the true score, how should OP’s game actually have been scored? Reading the Japanese rules pedantically, it seems like most of the left side of the board (all regions connected to the dead group) should count as seki, meaning White should have lost most of their territory. Is that really how it works? If so, discovering a dead black group could sometimes result in a gain of points for Black!
