In the main page

http://www.kpmc.or.kr/
select ENGLISH in the upper right

then in the menu, Tournament Guide, Player List:

the Chinese player is ONLY 11!! and it seems the Hong Kong one comes from the DISTANT future! (19999 typo)

Who is he? Never heard of him. Why aren't we sending a dan level player? What was our selection process?

edit: congrats to Fredrick, btw. maybe I should try harder to qualify for these events myself

I'm assuming this is some kind of bizarre error. My understanding is that the sponsors of this tournament do expect, with a little leeway permitted, that countries try to send their best players.

I agree. Then I might see you at a tournament. :)

Though I'm also a bit flabbergasted at this one. I saw no mention of what happened here in any aga news.

Some searching suggests he's the AGF teacher of the year, 2011.

I wanted to check the AGA board minutes for Sept 2011 for more info, but seems they're not up yet.

Edit: grammar. there != they're

Oh, Fritz? Well, at least it's someone really friendly. Met him at Congress and shared a couple of beers and a couple of particularly crazy games of go. Still curious how he qualified, friendly or no. =)

I assumed it was another of the little errors on the website, and that the guy was an invited guest. Last year my picture was wrong :)

Let's keep an eye tonight in WBaduk (Orobaduk) client for the games

Remember as soon as they are finished and report the result they remove it so we should wait to see them

I always collect them but I won't be online at that time today.
