keeping up on vaccation (Palma de Mallorca)

Post by virre »

So, I am on vacation and find that while there is WiFi in the hotel room it tends to lose connection to online-go.com and be generally unstable. I do have tsumegos with me and been doing thoose but I think I am starting with Tsumegos before I have enough experience to really gain from them.

But there seem to be no go-players in Palma de Mallorca

There is not a single go player in the world that does not benefit from doing Tsumego ;)

If you want to play with unstable internet I have two solutions:
- Correspondence Games, they work well even with a shaky connection
- If you are at a hotel, they sometimes have those signup sheets, where you can put down you name if you look for partners for activities. Its mostly sports, but if you put down go it might just work.

What pak0 says about Tsumego.

Also, when I begin with a Tsumego collection, I always begin with ones I can easily (i.e. automatically) solve, so that I can track my “way up”. It’s fun :-)

Wishing you nice holidays,

I don't think a day in the hospital would be. Or well based on my one time trying to drive a car, screaming at how fast 20Km/h is and then panicing. Umm yeah I don't have a license for a reason
