Didn't know where to put this, but I've recently started playing on a new server @ http://www.foxwq.com/ in my limited experience it seems like quite a nice server.
registration was fairly easy and requires the use of mobile authentication. Interface looks nice enough, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZBqiQoEAfI here is a video of hanayeol playing on the server. Apparently it has alot of users despite it being a new server (alot more than KGS afaik).

Another interesting thing I found was that while I was playing, I saw a deepmind 9d vs another 9d betting announcement come up. I clicked to the game and checked the profile. Not sure if this is an alphago single machine testing account, aja huang trolling or someone else impersonating the deepmind team, but in any case it seemed strong but by no means invincible. I've attached a zip with some games I downloaded from the profile. Incidentally it should be mentioned that it was easy to download them and they were in sgf format. Imo this server is far superior to tygem in terms of user interface, usability and visuals for western players. It also has an english client btw, though it may be harder to register on it.

Here's a random sgf I pulled from the zip.

It's not deepmind.

They only have 2 official accounts on KGS and tygem.
