Why Does No One Make The Next Move In Ongoing Game 2
   

Sorry, this is just a way to get Ongoing Game 2 advertised in the Recent Changes :-) I think the position is interesting, but as I made two previous moves for Black, someone else should take a turn.

HolIgor: For some reason the interest in the game is weak. Actually you have restarted it after a long pause. Perhaps people think that black leads too much. The lead is not that big, about 10 points, everything may happen yet. If you feel that nobody is going to reply then you may play the next move, I guess. I've played for white, so I can't make a move. OngoingGame was dead for some time after black resigned, but then an interest to play a good yose appeared despite the score. I think that the position in the second game is interesting. White definitely needs keep sente in several places to make several important moves. Black is thick and has solid territory but that may turn out to be almost all he has got.

DieterVerhofstadt: The problem lies with Black. I have been playing white but I rarely get the chance, for as soon as black has played, the white players have already responded. I did not want to shift to the Black side, but if you want to, I will.

Dnerra: Maybe it is better if you change sides rather than let the game die? If I started making all black moves, this wouldn't be a rengo anymore and part of the fun would get lost. I agree with HolIgor that B has more territory, but he still has a weak center group, which gives W some prospect for territory in the center. So, as we are all amateurs, I do not believe this game is decided.
