Cool webcomic, is there a way I could be warned when you've published more strips?

I'm doing a webcomic, and need an SGF file that shows a complicated, dan-level game to appear in an upcoming scene. I don't really want to use a pro SGF because all of you with databases will go running and come back to tell me who really played that game. (Or maybe you'd get a kick out of that?) So, do any of you have an SGF file you'd like to contribute? |

Is the game in question between the protagonist and his teacher? |

No, he walks in and watches two people playing. |

Just go to the KGS archive, type in TheCaptain and grab some old game. |

The idea of someone trying to find the easy way with go leaves me with a bad taste. |

I suppose I could start a thread in Creative Writing when I post the next page, and you could subscribe to it, and I'd post about updates there. speedchase wrote: The idea of someone trying to find the easy way with go leaves me with a bad taste. Yeah, well, he obviously has a lot to learn.  Weren't you impatient when you were a beginner?

I was actually kind of worried that people would not like what appear to be some bad messages in the comic. (Stuff that's resolved later, I promise.) Thanks for explaining the pun.  Everyone seems to agree that I should use one of TheCaptain's games, so I guess I will. Thanks! |

Every Go book I've ever bought (nearly 300 so far), every lesson that I've ever taken, and every teaching game I've ever received has been justified by the chance of finding that magical easier way. What did Sam Spade call it, "The stuff that dreams are made of"?

What did Sam Spade call it, "The stuff that dreams are made of"? To hijack / adapt an old joke..... A go player hears there is a magical book that when he reads it he will suddenly be five dan. So he goes out and buys every book he can find, hundreds of them! He reads the first one, goes to his local go club and plays the five dan....gets slaughtered....reads the next one....same story....flash forward 10 years, many club visits, and 298 books later. He finishes his 300th book, goes to his local go club, finally for the first time beats the local five dan! After club he thinks to himself "Man, if only I had read that book first I could have saved myself so much time...." |
