are there any stones dead in this game? My opponent put an x on all
mine and I declined. Since a stone (or a stone group) is called a dead
group if it cannot be saved from capturing by the opponent, shouldn't
all squares be left alone with no 'x's' anywhere? I'm so new at this
game....

the game

here is what it looked like with all stones marked dead

that just doesn't look right to me ;)

Groucho: Yes, you are correct. All of your white stones are alive :)
In fact, there are no legal places for black to even place a stone!

Groucho: All white stones on the board are alive and should not be marked dead at game end.

The final score for that game (as BrainKing calculates it and if I didn't make a mistake) should be:
Black: 0 (territory) - 68 (prisoners) - 3.5 (komi) = -71.5 points
White: 18 (territory) - 2 (prisoners) = 16 points
