I blame you too....

I am too much of luddite to understand the technical issue, but the answer to why the AGA does not update KGS is that it cannot.

I am very glad folks read the piece.

Perhaps the "ban over" bit was better recalled ten years ago when the haiku was written. It refers back to the server wars, and some players being banned from IGS. I recall T Mark wearing a shirt that said something like "Banned from IGS: Perhaps for Cause, but ...

Brian's report matches my information so precisely that any inaccuracy might be my fault.

Bozeman Montana has long been a back-up dream of outgoing President Andy Okun. The AGA would have to paratroop organizers and now that Andy is outgoing, perhaps this is more of a humorous "There is always ...

It seems appropriate to jump in here with a rare post. And I make an offering to the fact checking gods for doing so without my usual confirmations.

Of course we all love to follow Sumire, but I want to amplify pajaro's remarks and put in a good word for the victor.

It was a pleasure meeting her ...

I would read a compendium of your grocery lists.

The 1971 Honinbo book was originally translated for and published by Ishi Press, a major source of high level go books in English. Publishing translations requires permission from the copyright holder of the original. I think that many copyright holders of Japanese books often require a substantial ...

This would probably be very useful for L19ers to do too

What can I say? Mr. Fairbairn is simply a treasure. I recently purchased all of these excellent volumes and I am completely enchanted.

Reaching from this distant past, the information touched me directly in a fascinating way.

I am ashamed to admit that I had never really contemplated the group tax ...

The question is about hardcover books, not sure all the answers are taking that into account.

Not at home but my list of Hardcover English books, in a approximate chronological order from an increasingly addled memory -

Go and Go Moku
The Game of Go
Go Proverbs Illustrated

61: in a parking lot, you refuse to park your white car in a space bounded by three black ones.
62: you start using go terms and references in ordinary conversations with your go friends

64: you have no friends

53. Your three year old eats her goldfish crackers with the correct two fingers.

When I think of Ben, I am sopping wet and wearing only a towel.

Perhaps I should explain.

Several years ago, I headed back to my dorm room to get ready to emcee the Congress Banquet. The last thing I did was check the Lightning tournament results and, with an hour till the banquet, I was in the ...

US custom is definitely not to stop the clock for any reason other than big captures or some kind of dispute. And, I think, this is correct in a tournament where it is important to keep to a schedule. In a one off game like this one, where a delay is not going to hold up the next round, rules can ...
