Go/Baduk/Weiqi players in Oklahoma?!?

Until now, Oklahomans who play Go had no way to find each other. The game is virtually unknown to Americans.

Come to the meetings!

It's September, summer break is over and we're back!

When: Next Thursday, 6:30pm
Where: OU Student Union food court

(current as of fall 2005)

In nice weather we're sometimes out on the patio, on the west side of the building.

Student union is located here: [ext] http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?&address=900+Asp&city=Norman&state=ok

As you come down Asp, look to the right (west side of street) for the parking garage. Parking is free if you stay late, otherwise bring money. The food court is adjacent to the parking garage.

  • They've taken to keeping the parking garage open pretty late, at least to midnight, so parking is no longer free. tywin

Study Group for beginners in NW OKC

In September, a study group for beginning players is forming in northwest OKC. The group currently is slated to meet Thursday evenings from 6pm to 7:30 at the home of David Drexler (aka snerk on kgs). By unhappy coincidence this is the same night the club meets in Norman, however this can change if there is demand. We are working from the Learn to Play Go series by Janice Kim. If you wish to join us, send email to David [email] xxyokc@gmail.com with your phone number.

A mailing list lets a group of people share email in a simple way.

  • This room does not exist anymore. Did Go on OK die?

Boards and Stones

This is a newsgroup posting on google; a long review of a nice but inexpensive set followed by a url to ebay.

Even after shipping expense from Japan, these are good prices on exquisite shell/slate sets and solid wood boards.

  • For instant gratification try a Korean grocery store. These sets are not the best and may be pricey, but you can find them on the shelf.

Midwest City just north of Rose State at 15th and Hudiburg there is a Korean grocery with baduk sets.

Edmond, Korean Market at 4520 S Bryant.


Thanks for changing this page title, Unkx80. It looks nicer now. Halfling
