Is it time that Pair Go stopped its flirtation with absolute time limits. The variation created to attract women to the game, and to reinforce the stereotype that any man can look sexy in a suit has at its core an evil which must be exposed. There is nothing attractive about winning the game by playing stones in your own territory while 50 points behind. How many times does it have to happen before organisers will choose a time limit which affords the game with the respect that it deserves? Yes, the IAPGC has a super tight schedule, but not 1 other amateur pair go tournment in the world can say the same. |
