It's double dactyl time at the open mic night. Higgledy-piggledy, Matthew Macfadyen, now visibly frustrated, said—and I quote— "Play that results in your losing initiative orthophonetically is not a goat." |

As I laid my stone down I could see That the game was all over for me. And as you could guess, I felt quite depressed. For I'd have one the game without komi. |

Not poetry, but a song. It goes along a certain tune, I'm sure some readers will know: --- I wanna be the very best Like no one ever was To solve them is my real test Getting better is my cause I will solve them all as planned Practice day and night Baduk players will understand The power in my fight Tsumégo! Gotta solve 'em all Improving me Own them with my tesuji Tsumégo! Ooooh, you're my best friend Through the dans I will ascend Tsumégo! Gotta solve 'em all The answer's 1-2 More reading will pull me through You teach me and I'll teach them Tsumégo! Gotta solve 'em all Gotta solve 'em all Tsumégo! |

In 2004 one of the most active users in the german-go-board named ferdi posted a lot of poetry, including this one: Die alten Meister wissen: zuzeiten spielt man gut, zuzeiten echt beschissen. The ancient masters know: At times thou playest well, At times you suck like hell. @Ara omg i noticed the correct melody while reading the first line, guess that makes me a real nerd :/ |

That's only the first edition. They have 493 tsumego now! But you have to buy two copies of the book to get them all - if you only buy one book, you'll be missing about 20 tsumego unique to the other otherwise-identical book. |
