Adjudication in correspondence games
I think that you have to be very careful with this kind of adjudication. Even if you restrict this to cases that are 100% clear, you still have to separate them from the 99% cases. I would only consider adjudication if control of the board is completely decided and one player keeps playing worthless moves.

Re: Go: simultaneous games with handicap
Aren't all games a kind of simultaneous here?
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-06-01 12:26:32)
Go championship
I think that the current rules are quite good. For the current user base, 9 players round robin is enough.
If the user base gets bigger and stronger, you could introduce preliminary stages. Example: sort all players who entered the waiting list by rating, then the final league consists of the 5 strongest players plus 4 players who placed first in the preliminary (which might be a knockout, or another league).
One thing I would change in the current system: the usual custom for multi-game matches between two players is to determine colours randomly for the first game, then alternate. If an uneven number of games is played, then in the last game, colours are chosen randomly again.
As I interpret the rules in that way that all five final games are played simultaneously, I would propose that one of those games is played with random colours.

Final match
Hello Svante Carl, thanks for sharing your views !
I agree about the round-robin tournament, it could evolve according to the rating list...
About the final match, I have good reasons for not introducing any chancy factor in tournaments (anyway I think it's better this way), I finally agreed with players about the 5-games match but it was hard for me to consider this non symmetrical schedule... Making it different is not a problem IMO, a (2xn)-games final match with equality favourable to former champion - like FICGS chess WCH - was ok for me but 6 games may be too few, giving a too big advantage to the former winner of the tournament.
Anyway, there will be no final match in this 1st championship, it will be probably discussed again & again :)

Go sites
For fast games, a "real time" server is best, e.g. KGS (http://www.gokgs.com/). A great resource is the Go wiki at http://senseis.xmp.net/

Norms
Perhaps you could also explain what a "norm" is, for chess newbies.
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-09-06 22:04:56)
Norms
What is the exact definition of a "norm"? When googling, I found something along the lines of "a tournament performance indicating that a certain level has been reached", but what does it mean? Winning more than half of the games? How does it depend on the opponents' strength?
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-09-13 16:15:49)
What is the difference...
What is the difference between a japanese joseki a korean jeongseok? ... After a japanese joseki, both players have an equally good result. After a korean jeongseok, both players have an equally bad result.
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-09-28 01:07:38)
empty page
This is just a little issue: When I submit a move, and no game with pending moves is left, an empty page is displayed. I think it would be better to return to the games page immediately.

Cracking Go
This statement seems to relate not so much to Go but more on projected calculation power of supercomputers. My impression is that "provocative" is the main intent here.
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-10-10 13:32:04)
Why clump?
What is the advantage of this in comparison to an increment of 4 days per move?

Cracking Go
Svante Carl von Erichsen escrit: "This statement seems to relate not so much to Go but more on projected calculation power of supercomputers. My impression is that "provocative" is the main intent here." No, my intent was serious, only the small joke at the end was not ;-) By making the goban lager, Go can avoid the fate of Chess regarding brute force analysis. Even at a trillion moves per second, as mentioned in the article quoted by Thibault, brute force analysis will fail if there are trillions of trillions of trillions of possible moves!
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-10-17 02:10:48)
German
"Klicken Sie bitte auf die Figur, die Sie bewegen möchten." or "Klicken Sie bitte auf die Figur, mit der Sie ziehen möchten." "Klicken Sie bitte auf das Feld, auf das Sie die Figur bewegen möchten." or "Klicken Sie bitte auf das Zielfeld."
Thibault de Vassal (2007-10-17 02:48:48)

Thanks a lot Svante Carl !
So it is better than "Klicken Sie bitte an das Stück, um zu bewegen" and "Klicken Sie bitte an das Bestimmungsortquadrat" ?

SC. von Erichsen is FICGS Go champion !
Svante Carl von Erichsen 4d is the first FICGS Go world champion, congratulations :)
According to the rules : "In case of equality, the player with the strongest tournament entry rating (TER) is qualified for the next stage."
As Svante Carl now leads the tournament by 7/7, even if he loses his last game and another player also finishes with 7/8, the TER decides. And as there's no previous winner to defend his title...
After the second championship (the level should increase), we may have the first 5 games match between two very strong players :)

1st FICGS Go championship
Congratulation Svante on becoming the first FICGS Go World Champion.
Svante Carl von Erichsen (2007-11-30 02:00:56)
attempt at clarification
First, the professional ranks cannot be compared to amateur ranks. A few years ago, the general assumption was that a difference of one professional rank was equal to about one third of a stone. The EGF assumes 30 ELO points between pro ranks. Recently, however, especially in Korea, there are many aspiring young players trying to become a professional, but only a handful are promoted each year. As a result, the competition for _becoming_ pro has become so fierce that any player who passes these tests is all but guaranteed to be already able to give the established players a run for their money. Another point to note is that while amateur ranks try to depict the _strength_ of a player, professional ranks are based on _merit_.

Nice & instructive games to follow :)
Best of luck to both.

Janice Kim
Janice Kim was a 1 Dan professional in 1997, she is 3 Dan professional now. Is there more information available somewhere, e.g. regarding handicap and time settings?
Normajean Yates (2008-12-17 18:05:42)
anyway, about the 16-queens mate-in-4:
Svante Carl von Erichsen showed it was possible to solve without computer help:
http://www.ficgs.com/user_page.php?page=problem_read&id=311
As for proof game, The foll is from my rec.games.chess.analysis post [it *was* .analysis I think - feeling too tired to search usenet]
" This one is mine:
1. 4k3/qqqqqqqq/8/8/8/8/QQQQQQQQ/4K3 w - - 0 109: [pos. 1]
White to play and mate in 4.
There are no duals - only one moves mates in 4. [there is no mate in 3 or less.]
Move given at end of post, with sample continuation.
These two were posed by me and solved by likesforests [see fics (www.freechess.org) or chess.com] in 20 minutes total!
2. Give a proof game for pos. 1, ie Show that the position in prob. 1 is legally reachable by giving a game that leads to the position.
3. Okay, so you can reach a position where you have 16 queens on board. Can you construct a game which reaches a position with 18 queens? If so, do so! [the last part carries 99% of the credit - it is to pre-empt the answers "yes" and "no".

(note: these can be more conveniently viewed at chess.com in the thread "advantage of moving first - mate in 4 in symmetrical position" in the forum-category "more puzzles")
