Re: Your Go study space



New apartment and therefore new prominent position for the go board. The plum blossom room divider we purchased to block the glare on the tv helps to keep me secluded and focused.



Looks very serene and beautiful !

Also, I like your table lamp very much - Looks like a nice, smart design ...

Japanese Go Book from Meiji Period ?

Just saw this on ebay (no affiliation)

Not sure of the authenticity and there appears to be smudges all over the diagrams.

Re: Level Up & Jump Level Up series

Got my missing books last week by 2-day priority mail from YMI and they very nicely added 2 of their "Go" mouse pads as well for the trouble! Very happy with their response !

Re: SGF reviewer/creator for Mac

I must also add that Sente Goban is now back under active development, but as a paid app., available from the Apple store. SGF viewing/editing is marginally better than the old free version, but it still has a few bugs to be sorted out (e.g.: comments don't display correctly in SGF files). The ...

1. Right-click to select a portion of ...

Re: Question regarding AGA vs Territory/Area scoring


If you don't know how to count by area, learn it. It's good for your soul and you never know when you might need it. You can look at Eddie Kim's video for an example.

Re: Level Up & Jump Level Up series

Where did you end up getting the answer book from for the jump series?


Don't have them yet. I figured I'll get around to reading them only in a couple of months (years ? ) time, so will buy them at a later point. Planning to start with Level Up + printed answer sheets.

In other news YMI has ...
