The wording makes me unsure if this is just a save for yourself or if you're asking us.

In case of the latter, I'd say K8, N8, J9

Sorry about the wording; I timed out in the game, but after the fact found a winning move. Yours is a good try, but it loses

Oh, by the way lately I've been getting error messages when I try using the discuss game button and have ended up posting them manually.

Move 19: N7
This attacks to open up your 4 without giving up too much

Well in that case O8. Creates a cut 4 with the following capture creating a split 4.

Good idea, but after 31. ... O8, I would play 32. Q6 as P1

31...J8 32. K8 J9 33. L7 M9 0-1

It's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.
