Welcome to The Big Question Mark!
In many of my games, I come up against a position where I'm sure I made a mistake or could have played better and would like to get the position reviewed by a stronger player. In many cases, this means I send the game to the GoTeachingLadder. But what if you only have a question about one aspect of the game?
Why not ask it here, so stronger players can stop by and comment on it?
Just link to your questions below, and perhaps add your rank information so people know what sort of answer to give.
Before you know it, we'll all be 9 dans.. ;)
-- Matt Noonan
I see that in the various BQM pages (though I did not read them all) we meet quite a lot of famous players. Go Seigen appears at least three times... and he is always referred to as she. I wonder what he would think of this.. ;^) Different cultures have different attitudes, and I guess oriental people, in particular, might not like this at all! Why insult them? Sakata Eio is also a "she" in his game agains Fujisawa Hosai. I thought Fujiwara no Sai was the only great player whose sexual orientation was in doubt, but I see now that there are others!
You really should try to control this "she" BadHabit of yours when editing pages.. or I'll have to only play against stronger players from now on! It all goes to prove once more the same old general truth: the problem with so-called political correctness is that it is political but not correct.
