Re: How long does it have to be a "dan" player

I actually teach people how to play Go for a living and advertise that I can help them reach Dan. http://www.shawnsgogroup.com and http://www.youtube.com/clossius You can watch and see if you like my style or not there.

Re: Professional advice?

This is a good idea, but I would have to agree that it is not %100 accurate due to reasons other have posted. BUT! I think that if you applied a database to this as was previously suggested it would make for an interesting program.

Re: REGISTRATION - sign up here to play

Hi, I got yelled at to try this out =P. I also think I might as well to help my go experience. So I'm KGS 2d, I'm looking for an even game with someone.

I am new to this, so hopefully my opponent or viewers can help guide me through it some. I've looked at some other game, but the text and key ...
