Post subject: | GoGoD Coffee Break - The End |
At the GoGoD Executive lunch (Japanese sashimi bento and Chinese kungpo chicken in a Korean restaurant, believe it or not), T Mark and I today, 19 April 2013, discussed the Lack of Life in 19x19. The upshot was that our Coffee Break column will now end. There are also real life intrusions to consider anyway, but we decided there are more fruitful and enjoyable things to do than to present games for a dwindling and mostly unresponsive audience. It's a shame because a major motivation in starting it was to try to breathe some vibrancy into the forum. If we may remind you of our original "manifesto": We do not intend this to become a Q&A exercise for us, but we do hope that others will discuss the games offered and so share their experience with others. If possible, we each plan to work in shifts of a week on and a week off, but if real life intrudes plans may change and gaps may occur. Naturally, plans may also change if members prefer to spend their coffee breaks differently. But we did get questions, we did not get much discussion, real life did intrude, and clearly an increasing number of people are spending their coffee breaks elsewhere. Thank you to those who contributed. We are not disappearing from either the forum or go, but we would like to know where the action is now. |
