ProtoDeuteric
Hello. I am "lithogamy" on KGS.
I also have a gobase account. I used my KGS rank information in addition to just "Registration" in the subject line of the email needed to secure an account.
ProtoDeuteric Problem One
While looking at Kyu Exercise 4, I caught a blind spot at S1. This problem seemed too easy to be a kyu exercise. So, without further ado, where did my blind spot lead me to play (which was wrong for Kyu Exercise 4, of course)?
ProtoDeuteric Problem Two
I think I saw this problem at goproblems.com. An advertisement on this site's sidebar reminded me of it.
Complaints About Senseis Library
As someone who has used Sensei's Library for long enough to be more than comfortable with editing pages and one who has explored this Wiki enough to take note of what conventions I like and which ones I don't like, I feel that I can make informed, logical, sincere, and respectful complaints about certain aspects of SL.
My complaints follow:
- I like the convention on the pages with problems and/or exercises of having the setup for the problem on one page that is linked to the page with the solutions, which is a separate page. My complaint arises with regards to the series of problems known as Tsumego From Games a few to several of the problems belonging to this series have everything, which includes the setup, the attempts, analysis, and the solution, all on one page. I don't like this style from both an aesthetic viewpoint and practical/sensible perspective. Having this style would not be too bad in and of itself, although I would still not like it, but the fact that there are two different styles by which Go problems are presented causes confusion and distaste. Whoever doesn't mind seeing the solutions, please separated these pages, and pages like these, into the clean setup and pages for attempts, solutions, and, perhaps, hints.
