please do not set handicaps just by passing, start with at least 6 handicap, then pass. If you set handicap to 6 or more the game will be free. Otherwise kgs treats it as a rated game, without handicap and it will mess up the raking system.
mfgo1998 expects a 9 stone handicap then many passes to get to 29 stones. Otherwise its own internal handicap concept will be incorrect.
