About the Go Boards used in Second Life

When you have an Avatar in Second Life, you can buy these Gobans inworld at the [ext] Goban Hut (pay what you wish).

For playing Go in Second Life we use the same [ext] Gobans like in the Go Center (which closed in February, 2012).
These are the most advanced Gobans in Second Life.
The Game records of all games can be downloaded as SGF files from the [ext] Go Center Web Site.
