User talk:Evercat/Go rules

As a draft of the Go Rules page too much is missing.

The definite article is "The rules of play" is wrong.

If your ko rule is a 2-play rule, then your title "prohibition of repetition" contradicts it.

There are 3 fundamental standards for scoring, not 2.

What's the third? Stone counting? It's not used by anyone... Evercat 00:32, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

It is still used in some rural areas in China (S: Guo Juan, ex Chinese 6p) and used in some clubs (like Strasburg) to teach beginners. (BTW, go rules are not not go rules just because they would not be used.) Jasiek 06:30, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The terms "Chinese scoring" and "Japanese scoring" are terrible since there are several to many scoring methods for each and not all are Chinese or Japanese. The terms "area scoring" and "territory scoring" are more and appropriately neutral.

Why do you explain a difficult scoring type first?

Territory scoring does NOT REQUIRE life and death but there is a subtype of life-and-death-territory-scoring-methods.

Your description of territory scoring is very flawed. (These days I lack time to explain details.) Jasiek 22:44, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
