Playing on-line since 97/98.

I only play on-line, not in real life. I would probably be at least 5 stones weaker if confronted with a 3-dimensional go set with a real opponent!

Having said that, I do own a miniature set and did play for about 6 months a little over 20 years ago. At that time, I had a spectacularly diverse opponent-base of 1 to 2 people. The Go Monster then lay dormant within me for at least 15 years until it reared its head again when I discovered on-line Go.

I have mostly tended to stick with one server at a time, with only a little overlap. My order of playing has been Yahoo (it wasn't too bad back in '97), IGS, NNGS and now KGS. I have been playing regularly on KGS for about 5 years. More recently, I have ventured into the world of turn-based servers, and am trying my hand at some more slowly-paced games on dgs

I managed to attain the dizzy heights of 3-4kyu on kgs, prior to the Great Rank Blight of October-December 2004 (some dare not utter its name even to this day.....)

As of early 2005, my rank had stabilised again at 7k in the aftermath of the above; I like to think this is mostly due to the Great Rank Blight rather than my unerring ability to unlearn various Go techniques.

I am a member of the British Go Association but have no official rank due to not playing in any tournaments.

If i utter "syiaw" on kgs, it means "see you in another window".
