I know, that is the only thing. On the other hand I'm sure we could work something out like Saturday morning in US, Saturday afternoon in Europe.

I'd be interested in having more people, perhaps in the strength range of the participants in the koccoro cup, although I would not be too picky about exactly how strong. I think 4-5 would be an ideal number. what are your thoughts?

Agree. 3-8 is okay in strength, as for how many 5-7 to keep it in at least 4 every time there's a meeting

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Anytime, anywhere, baby!

Where would we meet and at what time? I cannot be there Sundays since I already have a go club reunion :( However, I'm free during Saturdays.

Maybe we should create a room for this study group. We'll also need to find a name

Saturday morning's good for me. If we could agree on an hour, would be awesome (so I can wake myself up in time). Otherwise, I'm 90% sure of oversleeping :P

Name suggestion:
- 2d's study group (since it's our objective)
- L19 study group
- Speeders

Saturday morning US is fine for me too (except for when I can't :P). For name, I don't mind. 2dSG looks nice though

Do you guys want to try to meet on this Saturday? 10am EST (3pm GMT) is best for me, but I could also get up earlier, or we could meet later.

Sorry for the delay! I thought I had answered and this morning I was like "oh detritus". I can't come today (this would be one of kind of days I could not make it). I have a lunch with former university friends, then we'll probably go home one of them and play some board game which is not go (I would be around 19 CET at home, which is too late for the US). If you meet, please post an SGF file of the session!
