hey guys =)

Post by aatos »

I was interested about go for several years, but never got into it (neither had knowledge about the rules).
about half a year ago, a friend destroyed my marble chess set by accident.
so I ordered totally impulsively a go set 2 months ago. (still dont knew the rules)
I got really really fascinated about go, and played game after game the first month. there was only go in my head ^^
I miss some more challange, because I got really good (for me and my friends), and my friends don't accept handicap stones.
internet go isn't my cup of tea.
I dont bother to buy a new chess set now.

I'm 25 year old, but look more like under 18. I was much into extreme sports as skateboarding, downhill longboarding and urban climbing in the past, but got much calmer today.
I like to make music.
most important thing to me is improve my personality. this is linked to my relationship to god.
second thing now is go =D

wish you all the best!

Welcome! - I just joined as well. I hope you enjoy Go. It is my favourite board game. I have played many board games but keep coming back to Go.

Welcome. I guess you will not be staying around long if you reached 10p in two months. It will become boring and you will move onto something else. :)
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).
