This week we havent made an account release. This is because we knew we were going to work on very sensitive stuff and we wouldnt want a whole new wave of players get in so close to this release.
A very large change was done on how Kaya processes and reads SGF, making it much better and more resilient. We are now confident that we can read a lot more games and we now support uploading SGFs and opening a Sandbox with them.
This way you can custom review a game with your friends and other go players.
Also, we added an option to start games with a desired handicap.
Kaya's regular autohandicap system means its much easier to start a game, and all games are balanced out, both for rating and for probability of winning.
The more balanced a game is, the more exciting it is and the more worthy towards accurate ratings.
However, not all games to be played are rated and competitive, and it was impossible to pick any handicap for any opponent before. Now we finally implemented a better challenging system so you can also pick the handicap and komi you wish for a specific opponent.
On the last note, the ASR league has been very successful so far, and over 100 games have been played. We are very happy with this collaboration and i hope this helps the ASR grow as well.
See you guys on the server for 1.5.
