Hi,

I'm fairly new to Go, been playing only since august 2003.

So far i'm only able to play on the internet (KGS) and in our pub (called [ext] Utopia) where we play 9x9 on paper with checkers stones (dont ask how many sets of stones, they're all in a big box).

I live in the Netherlands, in fairly sized village called Drunen.

If you need to know more, ask :)


Lately I've been trying to improve but failing miserably.

I just can't sit still and look/read long enough to figure stuff out. I think i play mostly on instinct.

I prefer games with 5 stones a minute above games with serious timelimits.

Can anybody recommed some techniques or execises to improve concentration?

Please keep in mind that I have both Asperger's Syndrome and ADD.

For some reason I made 19k. I grow more and more suspicous of the KGS rating sytem each day.
