Who are the Professionals on Tygem?

Post by emerus »

Is there any resource on the identities of the popular players on Tygem?

I really liked following the GoSensations rumor mill but that has long been inactive. For instance, from GoSensations, I recall that people thought "idontca1" is Park Junghwan. Now I'm really curious to know who "ddcg" is. His record is incredible and constantly gets 600+ viewers. I like to study his games.

edit:
I answered my own question by browsing old GoSensations pages. He seems to be Fan Tingyu and that makes sense considering how young he is and he is able to play so many games. Still, do you guys know the identities of any other high-profile Tygem players?

joonki = Seo Nungwuk, 9P from South Korea. He's like the Mike Tyson of Go - very aggressive.

I really have no idea if there is any accuracy on this, but I found this on google.

a quick search came up with ddcg being Fan Ting Yu http://senseis.xmp.net/?FanTingyu

Not sure of the accuracy of this, but many sources on google claim it would be him.
Staying true to myself.
