My real name is Matthew, but I'm not telling my last name. :P I'm 20 years old, and I live in New York. I play on KGS under the name Ceiter (3k). I also use this name on IGS, which I'll log in to once every month or so to keep my account from being deleted. I much prefer KGS. I usually hang out on KGS in the English Game Room and the KGS Teaching Ladder. Feel free to ask me for a teaching game. I'm happy to teach anyone around 8-20k. I'll also review a game of yours if you like. I started playing Go in the summer of '02. I've been a big fan of strategy games since before I could read, so I'd been interested in Go for years before actually playing it. Unfortunately, Go just isn't very accessible here in America, so it was only when I realized that Yahoo had online Go that I finally learned how to play. In May of 2003, I discovered KGS, where I now spend roughly 90% of my free time. Before KGS, I only played 9x9 games on Yahoo, so I consider May 2003 to be when I really started playing. My fuseki still lags behind my fighting because of all that time spent on 9x9. My advice to beginners: Play on 19x19! 9x9 games are good, too, but you should mix it up a bit, or you'll lose sight of the "big picture". Some of my non-Go-related hobbies are anime/manga and programming. My favorite manga is Hikaru no Go, and right now I'm trying to write a Go AI that can beat me. Okay, so maybe those hobbies aren't really "non-Go-related". Sue me. :) This is a copy of the living page "Ceiter" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
