Very well made and interesting portrait of Takemiya Masaki. He was the first Pro whose games i replayed and i think his humbleness and kindness is outstanding, of course besides his very powerful Go skills and his beautiful playing style. #baduk#weiqi#go https://t.co/BPep1PE2DD
Senseis Library was fast with updating Kyo Kagens profile page, the final game happened yesterday.
„In 2018 he won the #Gosei title, beating Iyama Yuta 3-0, ending Iyama's reign with all 7 of the big Japanese titles.“
@osmoticferenc @EinKleinerFalke A quick look at the last 10 games on gokifu, show that 6 / 10 games contain obvious bot influences. These aren't just the young pro players. Standing still is falling behind. - And for us amateurs it's also a chance to advance.
@osmoticferenc Even when supernatural beings like AlphaGo or LeeLa show us the path, most amateurs refuse to adjust their game. With statements like: "I am not a bot, so I cannot play like a bot". I wonder, will time bring wisdom?
"Go uses the most elemental materials and concepts: line and circle, wood and stone, black and white. Combining them with simple rules to generate subtle strategies and complex tactics that stagger the imagination". Iwamoto Kaoru, 9-dan professional & former Honinbo title holder

There was a a burst of interest in Go in the 60s & 70s that created an entire class of players in the West. Then interest tapered off until new players from Go countries filled the ranks. Time to evangelize Go’s original draw and show links to “consciousness” expansion, *ahem* 😎
