Systematic Joseki 4-4 3-6/ Discussion

x are also common, in certain situations - How to include it? Adding a few stones or maybe adding coordinates and explainning it using them? Reuven

I think most of those moves depend on the situations so much that trying to explain them is counterproductive. playing at the 5-5 point here isn't so much interesting from a joseki prospective but from a fuseki one, so deserves attention - but elsewhere.

I do believe they are using the convention of using letters at the end of the alphabet for non-joseki follow-ups that are found in specific situations. --Mef


Shaydwyrm: I was under the impression that the definition of a pseudo-pincer was a pincer that left space for a two point extension down the side. I would rather call the three point pincers "distant", or even just rename them all as "one point", "two point", etc.

Evan: It would seem atleast PincerNomenclature agrees with you. I prefer using names over a numerical distance, but I don't think we can afford to be overly strict on these kind of things, either way should be allowed:

  • 1 point pincer (near pincer)
  • 2 point pincer (pincer)
  • 3 point pincer (distant pincer)
  • 4 point pincer (pseudo pincer)

I think there general notes might be useful on other pages... So it probably should be discussed in the main SJ/discussion or SJ/something ... ? I'm not sure where though this general notes in distant pages method, can't be good... Any idea where to move it? Reuven
