The Game is On!

Post by Acscott2009 »

I'm a young Go player who has played for years, but hasn't really found his true rank in the Go world. I can solve problems listed in varying ranks from the lowest kyu up to 4dan. I haven't tried reading ahead all that much, though that may be due to playing turn based servers. I do hope to find where I stand in the Go world at the very least.

actually that is my theory of how to have a chance winning against the world best professional players: since my moves are definitely not strong enough most of the time my only chance is to play truly randomly. ;)
