Hey neighbor! Well almost... : ) Welcome back don't let that experience or being a novice discourage you. If you ever ever in our neck of the woods our little club would love to have you play regardless of strength.

What is your handle on OGS I will be happy to play a game or two, and I know a ...

Truth be told, I thought about that as well. I thought printing them on printer "business" cards might work.

Hi,

Does anyone have a link where these cards can be found. There is another thread (about 7 years old - hence the new thread here) that mentions them. I know most people use computers and smartphones for tsumego study but where I work physical playing card sized study cards would be best. Thanks.

Hello dharma_bum,
[..] I do not know if I will ever end up playing people [..] if you can imagine playing a slooooooow and relaxed correspondence game on OGS, with appropriate handicap etc., then hit me up on OGS – online-go.com, my nickname is “trohde”, I’ll then create a challenge.
