Or am I miscounting? ] ;B[tt]BL[979]C[ strombrg done strombrg 30k : Well... If I don't get crazy enough to try to make a run for that stone somehow, I think it might be like: strombrg 30k : Without taking stone: 1 point for dead stone strombrg 30k : With taking stone: 1 point for captured stone. -1 point for 1 less "territory" spot strombrg 30k : :) I'm not either. This stuff is so new to me. And I may have learned an amalgam of multiple scoring rule sets. strombrg 30k : Is it true that at the end of the game, one gets a point for each stone captured, and one point for each "surrounded" empty space? strombrg 30k : In some scoring rules, one also gets a point for each stone on the board of the "right" color, but in some... that's not true. I'm not sure which this is. strombrg 30k : That could be! Maybe one point for the dead stone, and one point for the territory underneath it... Interesting. strombrg 30k : I'm going to have to try playing myself against myself, and try some scoring variations. :) ]; TW[ef][eg][eh][fd][ff][fg][fi][ge][gf][gh][gi][hd][he][hf][hg][hh][hi][ie] [if][ig][ih][ii] TB[aa][ab][ac][ad][af][ag][ah][ai][ba][bc][bi][ca][da][ea][ia] )
