I plan to add more here in the future. Hopefully making a page or two will help me get the hang of Wiki.
I started playing go in May after watching HnG. Currently my rank is 7k on KGS (But I don't plan on staying at 7k for much longer :).
For now, he's my rank graph:
The flat parts of the graph is when I don't play rated games, and the sudden jumps happen from playing a few rated games in a short amount of time.
kritz So I noticed the Idea of rarely playing rated games, which seemed pretty cool. I looked up the games you play on KGS. Why so many 9x9 games? Seems you really only play 19x19 rated games every 2 or 3 months .... Is there a theory? Your progress is great (I'm currently frozen on KGS at the same level for months)
Truc: There's no theory really. I find full games too long (which take me about an hour, since I dislike fast games) and for the same reason I prefer 9x9. If you're stuck I suggest watching high dan games or going through pro games. I started watching high dan games when I was about 20k and improved a few stones pretty fast.
