It is not in the Japan app store (yet?). I hope it is only a timing issue! It looks great.

Wouldn't it have to be 幽玄の間 there anyways? :)

The interface is really nice, but unless I'm blind, I don't see any mis-tap prevention. I finally managed to get my first game, and I ended up with two serious mistakes from the stone not going where I intended. I'm going to stick with playing onTygem, even though the Wbaduk program is superior in every other way.

The Korean version is available, but not the English one. I emailed their support address, but so far no reply. :-|

My first game was't saved on the server. I won :(
Has anybody experienced the same?
The app is beautiful and works well otherwise.

Weird. I rarely play on Wbaduk, but I played a game last night and don't think it appeared on my win/loss count (and it didn't save the game, although I have it set to). Hmmm.

My first game wasn't saved either, though given the early mis-tap, I can't say I'm sad about that at all. I'd love to try again, but I can't for the life of me get anyone on wbaduk to play. Automatch seems to take about half a day to find a game, and manually making requests hasn't proven any better. I've tried several of the servers, but it's all the same.

Change server to Korea 1,2,3 or China 1,2,3. It looks like default server is not used for playing.

I can not find this app in the iStore I access from China. Is it not available for some reason?

I played another game on the iPad client, and my win/loss record and rank are still the same, and it didn't save my game, even though I have it out auto save. I played the game on a China server this time (last time I used Japan--same result).

Weird.

I think you can get your games online via www.

First problems I've had with the wbaduk app for iphone was today. I got dropped from 2 games and could find no way to go back and continue them.

I am trying to get this to work on an iPad1 that I am borrowing from work, and it loads the login page with a wait throbber that just spins for maybe 2 minutes. I can enter my login information, but neither "Log In" nor "Guest" buttons respond to touch. Has anyone else seen this, or know what may be going wrong?

Edit: Nevermind. I tried it at home and it just worked. So I think there is a firewall issue at work on wireless.

I have been liking the new interface as well, but I too have been having issues with accidentally messing up moves and having them count. Also, I have been dropped from the server mid game a couple times, but that could because I just installed Voip, so it may be because of my internal server. And it seems like some of my games are not being logged when they are over. I am hoping that some of these bugs can be fixed in an update soon, as I really like the new interface for iphone. :)

Just following up here. I gave wbaduk another try recently and found there is now a setting called "Preview stone on the board" which requires a double tap to send a move to the server. I don't know when this setting was added or if I simply didn't notice it before, but it's now there and I consider wbaduk very playable on the ipad now.

It's a little hard to get games on wbaduk, and ratings seem to be really off there - even more so than Tygem. But nonetheless, it's one more good option for playing go on the ipad.

At last - looks like on iOS6 saving your games works correctly. Previously there was always a blank list instead of your played/observed games. While Tygem app is broken on new iOS and WBaduk works better I will stick with it for some time (till I get 4dan there ;) )
