Re: Mainstream Go Sightings

Okay this is a bit of a stretch. But in this article on the NPR website there is a particularly familiar icon in image #8. Anyone recognize the setup?

Re: KGS Oldest Accounts

Fwiw my account is from November 2000 and I certainly remember it being rather sparsely populated back then.

Re: Tygem Pro Prelim

I showed and lost as well, but I had a great time.
Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be playing on Tygem either, but for the sole reason I couldn't find a way to chat on the iPad (I don't have access to a PC). I felt like a jerk not being able to wish my opponent a good game and have a friendly ...

Re: Tygem Pro Prelim

So the pairings are up. As I only have access to Tygem through an iPad, I apologize in advance to my opponent, as there doesn't appear to be a chat feature. So, Thinaskite, I wish you good luck and have fun in our game.
The pairing also says the game will be played on the AGA server of Tygem, but ...

I think it was postponed to follow the extension of the registration deadline.

I grabbed it last night and have been glued to my iPad ever since. Thank you, sir!

Re: Methods for lining gobans

I went the way of a marker, but I used a vinyl mask. Went crazy with the sharpie and then peeled the stickers. Worked great.
I did put a layer or two of Polycrylic first and then lightly sanded. You can get a matte Polycrylic to avoid the shine.

Re: Graphical Overlay for Go Screencasting

Just chiming in as another who dropped by last night. It was a lot of fun. I thought it seemed scattered, but I didn't realize at the time it was a "test". So all things considered, Bravo! I especially enjoyed the blitz game you played. I was surprised how much Malkovich info you packed into those ...

Re: Alternative Mac Icon

Mine installed in the application folder. Just right-click the icon and "View Package Contents". Then replace the icon file with the new one.
If its not in your application folder, perhaps try a Spotlight search

Alternative Mac Icon

Back in the day on GD.com someone posted an alternative KGS icon for OSX. I loved it. But in my various system migrations I can no longer find it. This has a picture of it, but no longer has a valid link to the icon itself. Anyone have this floating around their system?

Re: Mobile clients

I've gone through periods where I play a daily game during my lunch break on IGS (always 19x19), via Tetsuki and the iPhone. The interface is very clever and easy to use. It even handles incoming calls with aplomb. :clap:

Re: AGA priorities

Perhaps requiring a yearly (or at least regular) update from a representative of the club would instill a closer relationship between the two groups. I could see this prompting all kinds of more formal actions and interactions on both sides, as opposed to the loose acquaintances that exist now in ...
