Hey there =)

I'm Pablo, from Madrid, a 21 year old engineering student with an extreme case of Tetris Effect when playing Go. I see stones everywhere when I close my eyes! Hope you help me find a cure or otherwise get me more addicted :D .

Take care!

Getting more addicted is the cure! This sort of thing goes away after a while if you keep playing. Your brain is just rewiring itself to make sense of the shapes on a go board.

I had that exact same thing happen to me when I started playing. It was even keeping me awake at night because I couldn't settle my brain down enough to sleep. That's gone away now, but sometimes I wish I could get it back :) .
