Quick Questions
   

Is there a word (Other then invasion) to describe dropping a stone lightly inside an over expansive moyo when it has a chance of either achieving sabaki or escaping? I've heard it described in english as a "Paratrooper invasion".


Is there a word for a dragon that pokes it's head through one of your walls, and runs amok reducing your territory?


In Chinese there is a term that translates as 'virtuous warriors advance' Virtuos (de) means powerful in this context. Though this term describes the dynamic action, rather than the static formation.

brigati@newvoiceinternational.com is looking for a place to play Go around Shanghai. Any suggestions? (Please post here)

On a more general note - how would a visitor go about finding a go-club in e.g. China. Tourist office? Is there a sort of local listing equivalent?

I cannot get the CWS pages at [ext] http://www.gogame.cn.net/ up in my browser. Does anyone have any better URLs?

alter Pedro: I've never played face to face go ... and i wonder ...

do players keep records of their moves (like in chess)? all the pictures of boards i've seen don't have the coordinates on them which (IMHO) makes it hard to know where the last stone was played (was that k15 or j15???)

StormCrow: It depends on the person. Most people I know rarely record casual games. I generally record games I play in a tournament using a program on my palm pilot. If games are recorded on paper, they are generally marked up on a grid, rather than as a list of points played.

alter Pedro: Thanks Storm :)

unkx80: Generally, the records kept look exactly the same as the diagrams you see in SL. =)
