Yeah.. the misclick question is another fuzzy point. There was a lot of debate in the actual game about what was happening... but there is the difficulty of having weak players and strong players commenting. The only person who really knew what was happening and the direction of play is Mr. Kim.
Mr. Kim said there was no misclick.
What I would really hope for is someone who has a channel to Mr. Kim. This event received some coverage in AGA eJournal and certainly some here.. but to me this was a huge victory where the implications of the game did not come out until the victory. I feel that if this had occured in Japan or Korea... there would be general newspaper articles about the whole match... and there would have been dedicated reporters at the event.
There was a reporter from the Oregonian (the largest newspaper in Oregon); I imagine they'll run a story soon.
Also, we made Slashdot: http://games.slashdot.org/games/08/08/08/1243244.shtml
It would be really nice to have an interview with Mr. Kim to give stakeholders as much information as possible. I am sure that the Mogo devs are getting feedback from him... it would be nice for people in general to have Mr. Kim's take.
I'm reluctant to ask for more of Mr. Kim's time, as he was very generous to play this exhibition match in the first place.
