Hi Solomon, So is that the final verdict on the game from Tygem or so? Just by blindly following the variations on CyberOro, I didn't realize it.

Hi Solomon,
So is that the final verdict on the game from Tygem or so?
Just by blindly following the variations on CyberOro, I didn’t realize it. Although, White having to give Black a ponnuki on the left just to create a shicho-break mult have felt really painful for Takao…

I've heard somewhere about people going so far as to have to send their passport overseas to register a foreigner account. I am not sure about TOM.

And woot for Yoda winning, though he lost a huge advantage in the second half of the game and barely squeezed out the win.

About Tygem: is it easy to sign-up, given that they don't have English clients? (As for TOM - do you mean just the website, or is there a server as well?).

Lots of Diagrams, and even if the comments are "useless" you see why certain moves are played and what the alternatives would be. The games are probably being broadcasted on Tygem/TOM too. I don't know if they have better stuff though @ Kendrick

Are there better options to read/watch the game on. One with great/better (perhaps pro) commentaries? I’ve been watching it on the IGS-PandaNet because i like to read the comments.

The position after the first game-day was really interesting, i've watched the broadcast on ORO. They sure post a lot of diagrams, it's a pity that no one of the people that write comments there actually does that in english :( Nevertheless a great game. Yoda pulls one back, yeah!
