Go-Endgame at ficgs-GUI

Hello Ulrich.

This is the current message displayed before to enter a Go tournament :

"Rules for Go are chinese rules, as defined by the Chinese Weiqi Association. Both players must play until one resign, both players pass (then resign or call referee) or game is adjudicated. It's up to the players to discuss the score at the end of the game, so calling referee should be exceptional. Scoring method is area scoring with chinese counting. Positional superko rule apply, it's impossible to repeat a previous board position ('incorrect move' message would be displayed). Please note that you can pass, just entering 'pass' [then push 'move' button and 'confirm' your move] but one player has to resign or call referee to end the game."

Best wishes, Thibault

Prisoners

Where can we see the Prisoners of a GO-game?

Prisoners

Actually there is no need to see the prisoners (chinese counting is used - territory is all). Is it important ?

Only used japanese counting

It is important to know. I'm only used to japanese counting. Was the chinese counting easier to program for you?


Thibault de Vassal    (2007-09-06 23:45:06)
Chinese counting

The counting is the main and best point of the Go game IMO. With chinese counting, Go looks to me less material, more abstract and is probably most difficult to understand and program (Go engines). That's the only reason why I chose this counting.

By the way, does anyone know some statistics : How many players use chinese counting, japanese counting or another one ?

Do you agree with this point of view ?

Komidashi

Komi is the short word of komidashi. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komidashi It means points added to one player's score as compensation for playing as White.

This message is displayed before to enter a Kyu/Dan/Pro tournament... (by the way there's a mistake, it will be corrected soon) I hope it helps.


"All games are played in 30 days + 1 day / move. Komi is 7.5 points.
