Rating Paranoia
Path: BadHabits · Prev: LeavingYourHandOnTheMouse · Next: LeavingInTheMiddleOfAGame This can only be described as an illness. It comes about by logging into your Go servers every day to see how you ranking has changed from day to day or even worse from game to game. Best cure: Not to play online for a spell. Confused: Another cure is to play games against under-rated people. This way, the rank drops again a little and loses some of its shine. At least in my case, it cured me of chasing rank. Better be a under-rated 20 kyu than a fraud 10 kyu. This illness is also related to Equating Go skill with intelligence ;) -- Tim Brent Path: BadHabits · Prev: LeavingYourHandOnTheMouse · Next: LeavingInTheMiddleOfAGame This is a copy of the living page "Rating Paranoia" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
