Life In 19x19

Is there an place to find information about creating a client for one of the turn-based servers? I know many Web services have apis available. But can't see much beyond grabbing status. I know anDGS does it, and other apps. I'm curious as to how they pull that data.

Off topic, but I grew up in that area. It's not often you come across Pensacola or Fort Walton online.
Unfortunately I'm pretty far away now. This makes me want to get the local group together again

I will indeed sub when I have some money

fuego just kind of seems to do whatever it wants to in terms of score. I once had it just mark the whole 19x19 board dead, take his 6.5 points and leave the game.

I use crazy stone (Champion go) to play against, and wegoigo is really nice for reading kogo's



Ive seen yoo changhyuk's and thought it looked cool, but could never get it to register. On one it gives me an error,
and on another phone it just crashes

Might be worth it to look into some servers that have stonger bots and play them using the android client. Something like KGS. Though the bots are often in use. There may be other servers, like oro maybe that has an android client and additional bots. Pandanet has bots avalable all the time, but ...

I didnt get to watch for very long, but It looked pretty good. The only issue I noticed was that the volume of the adds was about 2-3 times louder then your commentary. For some reason adds are always louder it seems

Golf does have instant gratification though. You hit a ball with a stick, doesnt get much better then that

I didnt know people could volunteer to be admins. Otherwise I would have volunteered some time ago

I still say its fun to make your own sounds. For some reason a game is just so much better when every stone goes "Boink-Mooo"

1. Client is broken. No stone sound, audio pm sounds. Really??


This issues seems to come and go for me, Sometimes it works on Linux but not on windows, sometimes the other way around, sometimes not at all. I agree Id like to have them


2. Need KGS+ to enter tournaments. Pay to win now ...

I don't know if there's really a rush to get better in go. Unless you have some special reason you have your whole life to get better. Just keep playing and you will keep improving.


On the other hand if it was something you were making a job of (as I'm doing with compsci) You have to achieve some ...

One of the things I really enjoy about the game is that it has a very solid ranking system. I love playing, but one of the things I love about playing is going up in rank. Its very quick to see improvment as a quantified number vs other games where you might only be able to have a subjective idea ...
