Pretty good games, and fast paced with 5m + 10s/move per player.

On game 2) 21.j7 instead maybe? I missed this calculation in game, I was shooting for a nim based win but the move you played with 20.j11 threw off my analysis, so I had to think quick and blundered. I just remember being low on time and thinking... “any move is better than none!” lol. I had fun with it though for sure. I’d say 5min/10sec increase is good for a quick but still highly complex game. Certain situations you just have to make something happen.

We had some good ones, I’ll check with Purge to see if he recorded them like he usually does. Else I can try to recreate some of them.

I would like to note that on game 5, I blundered by playing move 29. a6... I didn’t really calculate the score I just needed to move lol. The correct move here is actually 29. b3... After first player takes the box, he has no choice but to sac the 3 chain. After second player takes all 3 boxes, the moves a8 or d11 will seal the victory at 12-13... I figured I made the right decision to double cross at the bottom, I just failed to find the right move after that. Nonetheless, it was well played by me good pal purgency who definitely deserved that win.

I think you need to be logged in to see the games on iggc, which can be annoying for those who dont have an account.

Well purge... Maybe having to log in might be a good thing. Then more players will create iggamecenter accounts and all of a sudden we have more active players on the site...? Idk if they get deleted, but we’ll see haha.
