Defeated!

Well it had to happen sooner or later. Daniel beat me yesterday. I decided to play out of form - opening with diagonal non-4,4 stones, and between the difficulties that ensued, and my inability, as ever, to turn quite a sizeable amount of influence into territory, I lost the game by over 130 points. But that's cool.

I logged onto Kiseido this morning only to find that following my routine losses to doobious et al my rank has actually gone up to 22kyu. I don't think so!
