hey guys!

Post by Tyson2011 »

hey everyone, i used to post under the nick "ichi" on godiscussions,but probably am not remembered as i had roughly 150 posts only...i took about a 2 year break from go, but have officially picked up again and am playing about about an 11kyu kgs level. i'm 17 years old and have a job assistant teaching at a tae kwon do gym. i also train in muay thai, Brazilian jiu jitsu, and krav maga. im your typical farm kid, love riding horse and whatnot. guess that pretty much sums me up, hope to stick with go this time :D

I think it's great that Go players do exist in North Dakota! ;)

Anyways, welcome - and I used to live in North Dakota as well (Minot)...my parents got tired of tornadoes though, so we moved.
