We played by stone counting. Black lost because we both like chocolate. ;)

If that was to me, sorry, I was just making a joke. ;)

Heh, looks tasty. :D

By the way, if you;re interested for future reference: coconut M&Ms are all white, dark brown, and green. Remove the green ones and you have perfect chocolate Go stones.

The cake-makers didn't know about go--can't even begin to express how hard it is to communicate what a go board looks like with enough precision that they could create the cake.

Um, show them a picture? :razz:

(I suppose you could wind up with something like this....)

I did end up showing them a picture, and I wouldn't advise doing it without a picture. But they still did have questions.

Hadn't it felt safer to bring along a real board and stones? :-?
I can't remember whether I did that or not. My wedding was not in the state I lived in, but the state I was originally from, so I might not have had a board available.

And I didn't have a board to leave with them for the two weeks in between meeting them and having the rehearsal dinner.

Party shops (such as Party City) often sell M&M's for many different colors (as well as ordering directly from M&M).

I bought both black and white M&M's for a cake for a anniversary party of the Seattle Go Center last weekend
