ASR League

    Keywords: Online Go

This league is a unique attempt to fill a valuable niche in the amateur Go playing community. We have tried to create a highly competitive system, accessible to all levels of ability, yet with something to offer and motivate each player to enjoy their time competing in the league.

Core tenets of the league

Teaching and Learning: With a spread of ability in the majority of the classes, that there will always be stronger players to play that can be learned from, and weaker players that can be taught. At the end of each game, it is hoped that the stronger player will take the time to review the game for the weaker player. If the players are of even strength, much can be learned by reviewing the game together.

Interactivity and involvement: We encourage anything that involves any of the players more in the league. Ask for stronger players to look at your game, join other games and offer reviews if you have the time, and be friendly to those in the league. Also, the points system strongly rewards activity you get half as many points for losing as you do for winning, so you can easily achieve a good class position with a poor record just by playing a lot of games We do this because we want people to improve as quickly as possible, and the motivation to play more games helps to achieve this.

The games are played at the KGS server in the Advanced Study Room (under lessons)

The league is currently run by a team of admins (KGS handles johndoe69, vortex and CGBSpender) led by chief admin stalkor. If you have any questions, comments, feedback and ideas, please post them for discussion on the league forum (kindly hosted by [Life in 19×19]) Likewise, if you want to join, PM us on KGS and we’ll add you into the next available class.
