I'm trying to figure this out. If you get a 9 stone handicap, you have
to give back those 9 stones? So a 9 stone handicap is not quite as
much
as it seems although it's still pretty good.
You might want a Chinese-rules handicap stone to have the same value as
a Japanese-rules handicap stone. But as things stand, it doesn't - N
handicap stones are worth N more points at the end of the game in a
Chinese game than in a Japanese game. So you can adjust for this by
deducting N from Black's score at the end of a Chinese game.
