Badger's introduction

Post by Badger16 »

Hello everyone,

I'm a new Go player from France (although I live abroad now) and am a complete newbie. I've started learning secretly about the rules of the game because my Chinese wife used to play it a lot with her family and misses it. I'd like to surprise her with a game offer some day!
Apart from that, I'm 38, like strategy games and aviation, and work as a manager in retail.

Have a nice day, and see you on the forums!

Welcome! I hope you keep interest in weiqi, it's so difficult when you start but if you succeed it's very rewarding too!

Do you know the weiqi strength of your wife? If you need any advice in your awesome wish please feel free to ask me, but maybe I am too late already.

Hello everyone, and thanks for the warm welcome! I've come back after a while because I juggled between winter holidays and extra work. I still found some time to do a little progress, and I hope that some day I'll be able to play like an adult :mrgreen:
As far as my wife level goes, I don't really know, and I'm afraid to blow my cover if I ask her...
