The Swine Flu Fuseki, white 2 elsewhere.

A new and infectious fuseki has began to creep across the Go world starting last night. It was found that when you opened on the H1 and N1 coordinates on a Goban, your opponent begins to experience very strange symptoms, like coughing, fever, aches, and other flu like indicators. Not much is known about this mysterious epidemic, it kills both the strong and the weak, raising concern about the future of opening theory. It has so far claimed at least one life, if you see anyone with the above symptoms, please contact the World Health Organization. We will try to provide more information as game theorists and doctors collaborate to try to find where this sinister plague originated from.


Anonymous Technician?: It would appear from preliminary observations that this viral fuseki is indeed dangerous, not only to the players, but to whatever software they are running. In at least one case of this fuseki, the player infected lost internet connection for quite awhile(approx. 20 mins), halfway through the infected game. Luckily, they did not finish the game, or they may well have lost the use of networking and/or vital system software.
