I am a student from Germany. As a chessplayer, I used to be good at calculating long sequences, but while improving my strategy, I lost that skill. I had posted statements here, trying to define my style, but I am not sure if I was successful, so I removed them again.
I'm am probably not weaker than 3 kyu any more and not much stronger than shodan yet. I recently started playing at the Dragon Go server. I improved to 4 kyu from an initial 6 kyu strength using the account with the name "sabaki" which will soon be deleted, because I tend to win most of my games with "fair" handicap.
I started I new account (shodan strength) under the name "Hoshi". My winning ratio is 5/7 and 2/4 on the usual 19x19 with normal Handicap, so I might have reached the level of shodan already. However, the sample is still too small to tell.(By the way, the servers like KGS, IGS and DGS don't seem to agree on playing strength, in my humble opinion. Does anyone diagree? IGS is tough, but maybe I just played much too fast here... )
Waiting for an answer: Special thanks for all the answers at Some things I am working at: Messages and comments: (will be deleted from time to time) Bill: Klaus, you may be interested to know that philosopher Ted Drange used to teach go as a part of his logic classes. :-) Interesting, I might have a closer look at Ted then!
