[18:28] Lys prosodiae[2k]: embiggening the centre? or playing C8 maybe? corner looks solid, can I bother the top side instead? or maybe I should just reduce/invade the left side nearer that corner that develops *with* that cheeky D10... I can also expand along the right - NOTE TO THNK ABOUT IT

[18:29] Lys prosodiae[2k]: D10 prevnts just tengen-ing it for the meme

[18:29] Lys prosodiae[2k]: prevents*

[18:30] Lys prosodiae[2k]: P5 for the ideal formation + reinforcement sounds dreamy though... it's been a while since I played that and I don't feel threatened by D10 so I could drop part of the influence of that left wall and just play it FUN

[18:31] Lys prosodiae[2k]: moyo both big and strong, but now invade invade invade? that could be a very fun game, but I'm not good at invasion

[18:31] Lys prosodiae[2k]: good opportunity to try it out then?

[18:31] Lys prosodiae[2k]: learn a thing or two, ask at the club what my errors are

[18:31] Lys prosodiae[2k]: I'm talking myself into it instead of thinking about it lol

[18:32] Lys prosodiae[2k]: okay, here is the list of moves for me to think about

[18:32] Lys prosodiae[2k]: C8 - bother the C7 group and the D10 stone

[18:32] Lys prosodiae[2k]: K10 - meme points, works with the moyo

[18:33] Lys prosodiae[2k]: P5 - maybe the most fun one and K10 would work well *then*

[18:33] Lys prosodiae[2k]: K17 - not an interesting point right away, but prevents both corners from working together into an interesting side

[18:34] Lys prosodiae[2k]: something like K7 - embiggen the wall but that is probably overconcentrated and not using influence that correctly - still, that makes a delectable omoyo

[18:36] Lys prosodiae[2k]: C14 - make that D10 not work with the corner, and that... maybe threatens the corner? I really should learn how to approach that lock rather than make it up. that looks like it sets up a fun san-san or B16 thing though, definitely look into it if I decide I want to try - BEFORE I try it

[10:42] Lys prosodiae[3k]: D12 pourrait marcher ? Je vois mal noir m'empêcher de sortir et de vivre à la fois, mais je dois faire attention et relire ça

[10:43] Lys prosodiae[3k]: ceci dit ça rend C8 plus sévère si la réponse de noir n'est pas assez sente, et surtout je ne peux pas laisser H15 être trop profitable

[10:43] Lys prosodiae[3k]: J'aurais bien aimé pouvoir commencer à menacer de refermer le moyo, mais la réduction/invasion en vaut la chandelle

Move 35

March 5, 2025

[11:44] Lys prosodiae[3k]: three ways, really: obstreperous at K2 or J3, prophet at K6 or J6, and Hazō's reneged aspect at L4

[11:46] Lys prosodiae[3k]: It kind of raises the question "what do you want?"

[11:46] Lys prosodiae[3k]: probably can't just, secure 16 lines

[11:46] Lys prosodiae[3k]: but I'd like not to be over-concentrated

[11:47] Lys prosodiae[3k]: bien qu'on ne dira jamais assez l'importance des points-clé d'influence positionnelle

[11:47] Lys prosodiae[3k]: </citation>

[11:48] Lys prosodiae[3k]: why am I Signamancy-encrypting my Malkovich comments even

[11:48] Lys prosodiae[3k]: It's fun at least

[11:50] Lys prosodiae[3k]: J6 mighty migh-tay tempting because no pushy behind and not that concerned for K3, but J3 might actually hurt a bit if no reinforce (J6 is reinforce)

[11:51] Lys prosodiae[3k]: F2 annoying

[11:56] Lys prosodiae[3k]: if I reinforce, black has to reinforce too or risk cut

[11:56] Lys prosodiae[3k]: what if try to settle?

[11:57] Lys prosodiae[3k]: Maybe my best chance, once I'm strong I can bully a lot more

[11:58] Lys prosodiae[3k]: is L3 stone one black will want to defend? Maybe not, but floating group in my moyo is floating group in my moto

[11:58] Lys prosodiae[3k]: moyo*

[11:58] Lys prosodiae[3k]: sure the moyo is weak BUT

[11:58] Lys prosodiae[3k]: will win things

[11:58] Lys prosodiae[3k]: and then I have a much better position to do a Parson Gotti em-kay manoeuvre

[11:59] Lys prosodiae[3k]: remove cut and all kikashi/nozoki possibility? Connect strongly? I've talked myself into it but is it the best?

[11:59] Lys prosodiae[3k]: For black, miai between pushing straight (can't hane) and protecting (can't make good shape easily anyway)

[12:00] Lys prosodiae[3k]: white profit rising near the centre and D10 isn't getting fresher

[12:00] Lys prosodiae[3k]: let's do it

Move 37

[12:21] Lys prosodiae[3k]: embarrassing misread lol but can't cut at L4

[12:21] Lys prosodiae[3k]: Still, good for white IMO

[12:21] Lys prosodiae[3k]: won't be an eye if M4

[12:22] Lys prosodiae[3k]: but not technically floating (can still easily remove base though)

[12:22] Lys prosodiae[3k]: might want to remove base

[12:22] Lys prosodiae[3k]: later

[12:22] Lys prosodiae[3k]: for now, no thinky

[12:24] Lys prosodiae[3k]: stressing for future me: not being allowed to cut at L4 doesn't change that this was probably the best move

[12:24] Lys prosodiae[3k]: not mistake just not same follow-up
