( ; Comment[Self-Ranking Test from rec.games.go This self test was posted by Boris L Chang (lchang@udel.edu) on the newsgroup rec.games.go in November 1990. It was converted to Smart Go format by Greg Anderson (greggor@apple.com). Boris L Chang said the following about the self test: "Following are 29 real game moves for self-ranking test China standard. Each day I will post 5 questions. The game is played by professinal 9 dan, and the 29 questions are prepared by Xiaoliu Chen a professional 7 dan in China. Scoring for answers will post separately. Total score is 290." The scoring table looks something like this: 270~290=above professional 5 dan 250~269=amature 6 dan 240~249= 5 dan ....... 140~149= 5 kyu below 139=under 6 kyu] ; Black[qd] ; White[dd] ; Black[cp] ; White[qq] ;
