Stone scoring is equivalent to area scoring (as used in Chinese rules) modulo a "group tax" of two points per separate group.
It's still not a good idea to play inside your own territory as long as there are neutral points on the board. (Except in more complicated situations where it might be necessary.)
Thanks for this !!
Nope, go game.
Thanks for the pleasant surprise.
but I can't take myself very seriously. I think its much better than the 'capture' approach where we dont explain any rules except surrounding, and the first capture wins.
lovely idea.
