First move Pass

If black passes as first move, the board should display the same joseki sequences just with exchanged colors. Pass basically means "black stones become white stones and the other way around".

Re: Don't display move number

What about positions with 10+ moves?

Scrolling is annoying

I'm not sure why this is, but it takes a lot of time to scroll in any window that has scrollbars. I mean, it's not lag, it's just too slow. I have to rotate the scrollwheel on my mouse many times until I finally get to see the content I want. I suggest to move more pixels per scrollwheel action (lik...

Re: Illustrative board positions

While I find this idea interesting, I would rather not have that. The basic problem I'm afraid of is that the illustrative positions require quite some time to create but are very diffcult to find - most users would miss them. Similar problem as wikipedia is facing - too many data to keep up with. M...

Re: enclosure josekis

I think using pass is the best option. It actually resembles what happens in a game.

Re: Classification of Plays: Ideal, Good,...

I agree with the OP. Some moves completely depend on the environment - they can be very good or very bad. That is different from many joseki that are more or less independant from the rest of the board. The proposed words sound fine to me and I recommend their use.

Login not permanent

I have to log in every time i reopen the browser. Happens in both chrome and FF. Always was like that, but I guess it's a bug after all.

I guess something is wrong with cookies... not sure how to check that, though.

Merge equals positions

As far as I know, equal positions that arise by a different move order (or by passes) do not lead to the same database entry. That's an important feature that should by implemented to avoid doubled work.

Don't display move number

I don't see any reason to display the numbers for the possible moves. They are just taking space and confusing the user.

Contribution game

How about a little game? For each useful contribution, users are awarded a point. Extra points are awarded for difficult or important moves. For instance, moves at early positions in the tree, or moves that have been in the database for a long time but still have no source, ... In my experience, thi...
