also, I need a clever name for the open source version of the renderer -- good ideas, anybody?
@CodeInChaos I guess your browser has some sort of issue with gradients. I've made a change that should work around issues like that -- does it look usable now?
@balpha Something else, there was a remark that a question feed could be turned on for this chat so we're notified. Do you know whom to talk to about this?
What are some programs that can be used to play Go offline?
I am aware of GnuGo, but are there good programs for Windows 7?
This is a Big list type question. One program per an answer. Please list the operating system as well as a download link, if it is legal/open source. Feel free to list thi...
The Mini Mini Chinese fuseki is similar to the regular Mini Chinese except the extension is slightly closer to the corner. Both the regular and the more tight version are common in recent pro games.

It was uttered elsewhere that a 9p could not give 7 stones to a 2p. I have not databases available and wondered if this is correct.
bonus: if they aren't representative, why not and is there a historical reason for it developing that way?
The intended formula is for 1 stone difference in rank, weaker player takes black with reverse komi of 0.5. From then on, add one handicap stone per stone difference (black goes first without komi is equivalent to one handicap stone if free placement is used).
However, this formula doesn't work ...
I'm looking for android app with problems for 10k-1k. I found this one:

which is very nice, but I'd like more problems.
for the feed... we're still working on the content
It's admitedly a bit trickier on japanese.SE though... since we didn't want to be focused on "learning methods" and also didn't want to be "please translate this"
Hm, probably. I was afraid of fuseki questions (Can I play this move?) but that would either be off topic - or be asked in a useful way (What are benefits and drawbacks of playing this and that?)
Well, somewhat useful.
This leads to another topic I'm afraid of: How should we title the questions?
"Question about a move in a game, #3453" doesnt seem that useful to me
Maybe if we had little diagrams next to the questions °_°
In the long run, there will be a lot of questions in the form of "Question about some move in some game". To make sure users have a basic understanding of the actual content of the question, I'd suggest to add little diagrams next to the questions.
To a Go player, those diagrams will usually imm...
For a long time, I have been interested in getting fluent in Audouard Coordinates. For an even longer time, probably since I read Nie Weiping's first go book, where he mentions sitting underneath a tree imagining entire games of go, I wanted to be able to imagine the game in my head.
As people m...
One of my favorite chapters of the book Strategic Concepts of Go is the chapter on korigatachi. I have often wondered if anyone had bothered to 'classify' different types of korigatachi -- for instance, such and such is a this type of korigatachi, such and such were that type. I am not really tal...

@mafutrct No, clearing flags is the main thing I'm doing haha
The Skyrim launch brought a huge amount of activity to the site, and, well...with large amounts of activity comes large amounts of ineptitude, apparently.
