My Week of Go Activities - Something Good is Coming
This is the board position of my game last night in the American Yunguseng Dojang at the point of resignation. I played a 4k and managed to get a resignation from her which felt really great.
Let me explain the sub title of my blog post today "Something Good is Coming".
I've been studying with In-seong Hwang through the American Yunguseng Dojang for nearly three years now. I've played over 130 games during that time and my ratings graph shows that I have gained nearly 200 ratings points in the system.
The rating system rewards you more for wins against players you are expected to lose to. It also punishes you less for losses to those players. You can see this in the chart below. It shows the various amounts rewarded or deducted due to my last 9 games.

My Week of Go Activities - BenKyo Speed Run
The Speed Run was supposed to be two days, but due to the generosity of the people in the stream, who gifted a great many subs, the event was expanded to three days.
An additional goal was created for a future 12 hour special stream event with a variety of activities. Once again, the stream stepped up, and that goal was met as well. This event will take place soon.

My Week of Go Activities - Yilun Yang Returns
Ben streamed for 12 hours straight three days in a row and I managed to be in attendance for about two thirds of the time. He was doing a speed run up the ranks from 8k to 8d. He didn't get all the way because the weaker players especially don't seem to know how to resign.

My Week of Go Activities - 5k Certificate on 101 Weiqi
When will it end?
I earned another certificate on the 101 Weiqi web site. This time for 5k.
I do think I have reached a level that I will maintain now for a couple of months. I don't think I will be seeing a 4k certificate any time in the new future.
I'm now doing five problem sets of 10 problems each every day at my own level. Those 5k problems are challenging.
I'll make this a short post since I am posting late in the week.
