While I love the intuitive style of the puzzles on Go Child. I am a little confused about how to figure out what the different icons do.
Also, it has been awhile since I played there, but it seems that it used to keep track of which problems I had done and now it doesn't seem to do that. Perhaps one of those icons will help?
Thanks.

Re: Go Child Icons
figured out the track record thing. I had it on "practice" instead of "growing".
Also, the icons aren't on the 'practice' setting, So it's not really that big of a deal anymore.
I thought they had overhauled the whole site. Although, the bird sounds are new, I think.

If you are logged in, the site should remember which problems you have done. The ones you got wrong in practice mode will be marked with a red label. If you go back to the same pack, you can click the first filter button, and you will only be shown the problems that you got wrong (the red labeled ones). The third button is "shuffle," I don't know what the die does, and the "label" button allows you to create custom labels for the problems.
Patience, grasshopper.

www.gochildgame.com
It is a strange site with no instructions. It begins at the most basic level (marking dead stones/groups) and progresses gradually to an expert level that most people will probably never master.
I play through some problems every morning to wake my brain up. It is the best go puzzle resource I have found.

I think the people above are talking about gochild2009.appspot.com

In practice mode you have to click on the tag to toggle its color, wrong answer won't mark a red label. The die will show questions with random orientation and color. Click the top left clue area will refresh current question.
