metaperl

Hello, this is Terrence Brannon's page. I play on KGS, IGS, littlegolem, online-goserver, brainking and dragongoserver. In all cases, username is metaperl, so let's play sometime.

Here are my favorite pages:

• Beginner L&D
• Basic Live Shapes
• Extensions

Here are ones I wrote:

• TerrencesRoadMapTo13k
• RankingTheBigOpeningMoves -- Yang Yilun's superb guide on how to play the opening!
• Korean Baduk Terms - because I could not edit Korean Go Terms I need to keep my own list.

Improving Your Game

Many times people want to get better... here is the road to where I am now (12k on KGS):

• Kerwin's Road Map to 15k - the very first thing I used... and good basic material
• Terrence's Road Map to 17k - a chronicle of how I got to 17k
• Terrence's Road Map from 15k
• And we cannot forget TerrencesRoadMapTo13k
• And a special shout-out MUST be made to Bruce Wilcox... if you dont pay attention to anything else in terms of improving your game GET HIS MATERIAL - http://webpages.charter.net/suewilcox/
• And now for the latest update ... I'm ordering "Lessons in the Fundamentals of Go" and "1001 Life and Death Problems" and will be doing the L&D with GoGrinder.
• Printing out your games and taking them to a local Go club is also good... and godiscussions.com is great!
• Yang Yilun's book "Fundamental Principles of Go" has an excellent section entitled RankingTheBigOpeningMoves
