Greetings and salutations. I'm Mike Malveaux in Tacoma, WA, US (near Seattle). I've been Go-inactive recently, and I'm bootstrapping myself back up. I've played for about 20 years, off and on, beginning in Chicago, thanks to John Harriman. Currently my AGA rating is 4k; hoping to make shodan in the next few years. I won't be at the Go Congress this year, and probably not next year, but hopefully I'll be there in 2012.
Glad to be here!
Hello from Tacoma

Re: Hello from Tacoma
Howdy! Good to meet you. From what I understand, we have a handful of Washingtonians (?) around here already. See you around.
Someday I want to be strong enough to earn KGS[-].

Not addressed to me, but I might be around after the World Cup.

Re: Hello from Tacoma
Thanks for the welcome, y'all.
That was a game of vicious fighting -- great fun, though I lost a 50-stone group. lol
I've missed being around. Life's like that sometimes. Hey, I want to pick your brain about Macs one of these days. I assume you're going to Colorado -- maybe sometime after you get back in August, we can get together?
Likewise, I'm sure. Yes, Washington is a veritable hotbed of Go-ness, so there are bound to be a bunch of us here.Chew Terr wrote:Howdy! Good to meet you. From what I understand, we have a handful of Washingtonians (?) around here already. See you around.
Hi Bill! I can't make it this Sunday -- it's my weekend to work.Redbeard wrote:Hi Mike, Welcome to L19!

Re: Hello from Tacoma
Hey folks -- it's not your imagination; my login name is different now. I was too hasty when choosing a username here, and the Admins kindly consented to changing it to "hilltopgo".
For the record, I was "mikem" here initially; and back at GoDiscussions, I was "wegobad". On Senseis Library, I have been "wegobad" and before that, "takengive". I am now migrating my online Go handles to "hilltopgo."
Sorry for any confusion!
