Name: Norman Perlmutter

Date of Birth: October 7, 1984

KGS Username: Norman314

I am a Ph.D. student in math living in New York City. I'm a member of the Brooklyn Go Club and the Mostly Go Meetup group. I've known the rules of go for many years -- first saw that game in the Klutz Book of Games when I was a child, but I began playing seriously in the spring of 2011. Since then, go has become an obsession. I'm now 7 kyu on KGS and continuing to improve.

I played chess competitively in high school. Now I just play chess casually. If 1 dan = 2000 US Chess federation, and 1 stone = 100 chess rating points, then I have three or four stones to go until my go strength reaches my peak chess strength.

Favorite Go Books Kageyama: Lessons in the Fundamentals of Go Yang: Fundamental Principles of Go Davies and Ishida: Attack and Defense Matthews: Shape Up

I can be reached by gmail, under the same username as my KGS username.
