[14:04] EonPiece[18k]: ok

[14:04] EonPiece[18k]: i got no ideas on what i would do

[14:04] spatula[13k]: I was 16 k when the game started so there's no handicap stones

[14:05] EonPiece[18k]: what k are you then?

[14:05] spatula[13k]: I think given that now I'm 13k, that put you in a diadvatageous position

[14:05] EonPiece[18k]: ok
