Re: $14,400 prize for the first to beat Master

It has gone 30-0 (maybe more by now) over the last few days against pros, including Ke Jie and Park Junghwan. See this thread . 41-0 meanwhile, as far as I have read somewhere here, on r/baduk, or in the German DGoB forum.
Also won against Gu Li and Iyama Yuta, IIRC. All 41 games are lined up here ...

Re: 2016 Go Congress in Boston

Many thanks for all the suggestions!
Just coming home from watching TV in public - Portugal won soccer European Championship against France.
Great game, congrats!
Now it's time to go to sleep, but tomorrow I'll check those suggestions.

Cheers,
Rainer

2016 Go Congress in Boston

I am going to visit the American Go Congress and I have booked from July 30 to August 8.
As I take the flight from Germany to Boston on the 28th of July I need two additional stays.
The organizers cannot give me my room before the 30th, which is a pity.
Can somebody give me friendly hints where to ...

Re: Aji's Quest

Are there any little stories to tell about how children or maybe teachers reacted to Aji's Quest?
From time to time I hear someone say (or get a message) that those three eaglets are especially cute.
One girl liked master Tenuki most because he's so mysterious and funny and wise .
Some praised the ...

Thanks a lot for the link. I must say I am overwhelmed and completely happy with what they did. Colette has been creating a little world and presented it in beautiful pictures and with a funny story. Loving Go, I immediately fell in love with this little world when it came to life in ...

Re: Aji's Quest

This book was heart-touching: " Go As Communication " by Yasuda Yasutoshi 9p.
It was recommended to me months ago, but only recently I bought it and read it today.
Anyone who teaches Go to children or elderly and disabled persons could gain profit from this book, for sure.
I was reminded of Aji's ...

Re: Aji's Quest

Yes, wonderful news. And thank you for the Tesuji explanation. This is just one more example of why I am more than fond of Aji's Quest: everything has a background in your experience, be it the game and its fascination or teaching experience.
I remember well that you wrote that you gained fresh ...

Re: Aji's Quest

Somebody asked whether other Go teachers experienced the same as he: that girls tended to avoid tournaments while boys liked ranking fights.
( See German forum "Mädchen und Jungen beim Go" )
I was reminded of Tesuji Tiger, the sister of Tsumego Tiger.
Colette lets her say on page 60 : "I'm not a ...

Re: Aji's Quest

I like the situation on pages 117 to 120 very much, and especially the pondering of Aji. Where did you take that from? And are these comments yours or did you see them?

Re: Aji's Quest

With 50 pages to go, I feel in the middle of the translation process.
I would like to write down what I learned and what other translators could be interested in.
I plan some document, titeled "The Quollity of Translation - Aji's Quest".
I will collect insights and AHAs as well as technical details ...
