BramGo/WuQingYuan: I really like this Student Program Idea. I'm sure I could teach a lot to a devoted 20k player. And I'm sure a 1k player could teach me a lot if I could play him about 3 times a week or more. Contact me on KGS if interested ! Monthly event?Anybody knows what's up with it? Using the game listN.B. Even though the following has little to do with "Go-playing spirit", it may be of practical value, and the KTL page is already such a mess that I decided to post it here. -- jantiff
This idea is inspired from the french To request a review there, the pupil posts a "fake" game offer, telling which game in the notes. Just like this: "jantiff vs. clair2lune 25/06/04". This makes it easy for the teacher to load the game. Upon agreement with the pupil, you get to his/her game list via the user info button in the challenge window. The pupil can then cancel the game offer and join the reviewed game.
After the review, the teacher - de facto owner of the game - will be automatically proposed to save it in his/her own game list, and should do so. In the I think it would work fine in the KTL. A slight disadvantage is that the room's tab won't highlight from just a game offer being posted. On the other hand, it is more clear who is requesting what at a given time, and it's easier to keep track of past reviews. Teachers who are really eager to review, and cannot bear waiting for a request ;-) could, just as well, post an announce as a "fake" game offer. On the longer term, it would be very nice to have such proposal/request for review features integrated into KGS's interface. Blake: Be careful doing this. KGS has a clause against "ad games" in its terms of service, meant to combat things like people posting ads for paid lessons and so forth (I suppose). I asked an assistant whether this sort of thing would violate that clause, and he said no -- but make sure the game isn't listed in the Open list (just uncheck that box when making the challenge), so that it's in the KTL room.
