2002-07-18 Hehe. Taking a coffee after a heavy afternoon of SL activity. You RecentChangesJunkies' nightmares make my day. --Dieter I am very tempted to add your name in the Recent Changes Dealer list, but someone else has done it. =P --unkx80 2002-07-15

April 29, 2002 I'm considering going to law school in Bristol, Rhode Island next year. Many factors affect this decision, of course... Do you know of any Go players, clubs, etc, anywhere near that area? (Near can include as far as Newport or Providence.) Thanks! --Regyt

April 19, 2002 March 1, 2002 Two librarians will meet this weekend in a severe battle over the Belgian Championships. Both had qualified once before but neither of them made it to the top five. They have been close friends up to this moment, but tomorrow morning there will be no sign of friendship as the clocks start ticking. Several questions arise: who will win the Ghent game ? Will the driver safely drive his copilot to the finals venue ? Who will laugh bigtime on their way back ? Will life ever be the same again ? Arno: well, as long as neither of you starts throwing the board against the wall - denting the wall and the board - prior to uppercutting your opponent it should be a fair match :o) Thank god you play with clocks, so you can't spend too much time thinking, but you can still take off your socks then put them at the side of the board. Also, after the match you can point out mistakes after a lucky win :o) March 4 --Stefan: It would have been accurate to point out that there are three librarians meeting in the BC. But then again counting has never been Dieter's forte. We can already answer Dieter's questions above, since we clashed Sunday morning. For anybody who cares to know: Dieter won, the gracious loser safely drove them all back home, we all had many a good laugh, and none of this makes a shred of a difference to our lives. Oh, and Arno: you had to encourage him to take off his socks, hadn't you?
--Dieter: I said "two librarians are meeting this weekend in the BC". Alain, the third librarian, will play the other two in two weeks. But then again, neither careful reading nor timing have ever been Stefan's forte. That's why he prefers playing Oh, and I just launched my laundry machine. --Stefan: Aaah!! So you already knew the draw ahead of the weekend??? That's an amazing feat, considering we only made it Saturday morning!!! And who was it again I beat in the fourth round of that children tournament? Memorising stuff, you know... definitely not my forte :-) March 4, 2002 --Alain: I am happy to read that you will wear clean socks when we meet in two weeks ;-). Feb 5, 2002
Arno: If you didn't have a look at January 13, 2002 Arno: Does someone here know the Japanese term for "threat"? Bill: A ko threat is a kozai or kodate. :-) Arno: thx, Bill :o) Is there a generic term (not related to ko) as well? E.g. as in "threat to cut" or "threat to kill"? Bill: The common term is "nerai" (verb = "nerau"), meaning "aim". Occasionally a large follow-up is called "ni no ya", the "second arrow." December 26, 2001 All mathematicians and non-mathematicians out there, get your copy of "Uncle Petros and the Goldbach conjecture" ! I received it at Christmas Eve, returned home at 3 AM, and finished the book at 5 AM (no it is not very "atsui"). It is a novel, and a wonderful one. --Dieter December 21, 2001 HolIgor: 5d* are discussing the thickness on the r.g.g. But in my opinion they ask a wrong question. They should concentrate on the natural questions like how much of that thickness you can allow to your oppenent and how to make it all ineffective. That was just a coffee break rant. Dec 02, 2001 Sorry, I don't even know whether this is the proper place to ask such a question, but: Can anybody email me some graphic files (tiff, jpeg, etc.) with the kanji for "go", and also chinese ideograms for "wei qi", and koreans for "baduk". Or suggest where I can find them... thx a lot! If you are referring to the Go terms, then the Chinese version can be found from Chinese Go Terms. --unkx80 Dec 04, 2001 Thx unkx80, but I need three separate graphic files for each of the three ideograms, and possibly of some quality: I have to design a flyer for the Roma Go Club... I don't have very nice looking Chinese fonts. Try the one on the Jago webpage. --unkx80 Dec 09, 2001 A heartful of thanks to unkx80 and all the others who emailed me with files and suggestions! I will answer them all! I'm not good at graphics so I don't know if there's anybody interested in seeing (and of course using) my flyer when it will be finished (if you'd like to use it, just change the name of the club...). It will be a very simple one, to advertise the club around the city. Aug 14, 2001 Suggestion: Would anyone be interested in adding a short stories section for writer/go player contributers? Just an idea. I didn't want to put it up until someone actually had a story. (unknown)
Everybody have a look at --Dieter Look at a funny end game move of parkjr --HolIgor
There is a rumor that :The rumor is true. You might start at a lower level and work your way up. I usually start at 30k because I'm a beginner. --[BigMetalGuy]] I thought that groups on the board had only one life? :o) Seems to be an interesting position, I assume it had 8 eyes, but it got cut into 4 parts and then he filled in one eye each? :o) --Arno Ha ha ha... It's not "life" as in whether a group is living or not, but more in the sense of the "life" when you play computer games, i.e. the number of attempts that's allowed. :-) --unkx80 I made some new entries chain, strict connection and path, vaguely resembling sarting definitions for algoritms in GoPrograms. As this is a potential HotTopic?, please improve on them. --Dieter Odd. Here we have this entire wiki devoted to Go, but apparently noone ever cared to define what Go actually is. Sure, there's lot's of stuff about rules and such, but no page for Go. Even Wei'qi and Baduk only mention that they are other names for Go :o) Dieter: You're right. Perhaps we should copy all content of this Wiki into one page Go. WHAT ?!?!?! There is no page called Wiki ?!?!?! There is now, but it needs some TLC. --RussellKhan Matt Noonan: Playing four games of go at the coffeehouse last night, a girl recognized it from A Beautiful Mind and asked to learn how to play. Later, another guy was intrigued by the way we counted the game. Hopeful for the future of American go.. :) This is a copy of the living page "Coffee Machine" at Sensei's Library.
