And to be more precise, here is how it might work:
Handicap
--------
0 - komi is 7.5 and either player plays black.
1 - komi is 0.5 and weaker player plays black.
2 - komi is 0.5, weaker player gets black, white gets 2 points.
3 - komi is 0.5, weaker player gets black, white gets 3 points.
At 2 handicap and beyond, the net effect is as if komi was increased by
the number of stones handicap (but it won't be implemented that way.)
Is this how everyone else understands it?
That makes little sense to me. If you want to give white extra points at the
end
of the game, then put it in the komi. That's what it's for!
So above, for 2hcap, komi will be 2.5, and for 3hcap, it will be 3.5...
Why introduce 2 different komi's that need to be added?
