dr

dr is Dan Rosen, an amateur go player from San Francisco. I play on KGS and am currently struggling to reach shodan. A couple interesting observations about my rank graph:

• I was laid off from my last job in the beginning of December, 2003. In the following three weeks, I gained three stones.
• In late February, I went to Japan for three weeks and returned in early March. The stupid thing is, I didn't play any go while I was there. So I had a substantial losing streak when I returned.
• I finally made single-digit kyu in early April, but in mid-April, I got a job. I haven't gotten any stronger since then...

My KGS user info, in haiku form:

  I like to play go.
  It keeps my brain from freezing,
  Except when I'm dumb.

Here's another:

  We can all misclick,
  That's when I allow undos.
  Otherwise, no dice.

Ok, last haiku:

  My name is "dr."
  I live in San Francisco,
  And I'm twenty-six.

I'm wondering about Counting Points in Seki.
