Jenny Radcliffe
PageType: HomePage    

Hello

My name is Jenny Radcliffe, I'm on the Training Committee (i.e. exec) of Durham Go Club ([ext] http://www.dur.ac.uk/gradsoc.go-club/), I'm probably about 12 kyu in British terms.

I very occasionally play on KGS with the highly original username of JennyRad.

I am interested, in Go terms, in things like the logistics of internal club ladders, and if anyone wants to point me in the direction of good articles on the Wiki or elsewhere that will inform me on the subject, I will be delighted.

I am currently engaged in organising Durham's 10th Anniversary Tournament ([ext] http://www.dur.ac.uk/gradsoc.go-club/anniversary.php), which is on the 17th and 18th of May, a six-round MacMahon.


Have you perfected the ruffle tesuji yet?
~ian~

Working on it, sweetie. I should get some more progress made when I see you next month - mwahahahaha! I worked the Toddler Tesuji against Edwin when we were babysitting David Stribblehill, though. He needs to be a bit older before we actually start teaching him to play. - Jenny Radcliffe

JennyRadcliffe - Updating this, the little brat, aged about 3 and 3/4 at the time, beat me on a 9x9 with 4 stones. Remarkably competent.


Charles Matthews Hi, Jenny! It sounds like you might be interested in point ranking scheme at Tokyo go clubs.

Ooh, thank you. I will examine it! - Jenny Radcliffe


Almost 20 years ago I ran a ladder at the Denver Go Club. We had rungs which varied with rank. I don't recall the exact numbers but you can experiment yourself. It was something like 10 rungs per dan grade down to 2 rungs per low kyu grade. Normal handicaps were used with komi varying between -5 and +5 depending on the exact difference in rank. The winner went up one rung, the lose down one. It ran for quite a long time and seems to work very well. DrStraw


Hi, Jenny! I tried to set up a club ladder.... well, it isn't used much. But you can find our system and the references I used at: [ext] http://www.geocities.com/goswanseaweb/ladder.html .
