Hi, this is my homepage at the senseis library. I'm a dutch 3d playing at the Delft Go Club? (Until recently at the Groningen Go Club, of which I am still a member)

I played my first (9x9 6 handicap) game of go on august 18, 1995, when I went to study computer science at the university of groningen. I then took a beginners course in september & october.

I stopped playing somewhere toward the end of 1999 when I lost interest. I started playing again after discovering Hikaru no Go in july 2002, which motivated me to pick up this great game once again. Since then I've gained 3 dan grades. My goal is to be 5 dan before the European Go Congress 2009, of which I am one of the organizers.

Rank history:

  • start aug 1995
  • 7k 1996
  • 4k 1997
  • 1k 1998
  • -- Mostly stopped playing 1999-2002 --
  • 1d 2003 (jan)
  • 2d 2004 (sep)
  • 3d 2005 (sep)

Congratulations on your promotion to shodan, Herman! - Andre Engels
