Re: ZBaduk - LeeLa Zero from your webbrowser

Unfortunately our Russian backend server has been down since yesterday evening.

ZBaduk uses a low-end backend server to do its LeeLa Zero calculations (~100usd/mo).
Because this server is down, most functionality of the website is unavailable.
The cloud service provider has been contacted, and is ...

Re: Flag Wbaduk

@karaklis , in my case even worse. When I log-in to the website, it clearly says that my country is "Belgium". But during actual play using the client, for some reason it shows the flag of Indonesia.

I find this very annoying, but I searched and searched and searched, and there seems to be ...

Re: retrieve old wbaduk games

In mean time I discovered why I failed to backup them in the first place.

You would expect to find your files in C:\Program Files (x86)\WBaduk\Gibo
But in more recent versions of windows they are no longer stored there.
Instead they are actually stored in the following path:

Re: Memorizing Pro Games?

It's a good thing to have a continious flow of fresh ideas , new inspiration, new opinions, new moves, new strategies.
Pro games do contain a lot of information.

When I study pro games, I like to use a real board.
But I put my laptop next to it. I tend to use a database system (e.g. kombilo) to ...

retrieve old wbaduk games

I cleared my hard disk a couple of weeks ago and reinstalled windows.

I took a copy of my wbaduk folder before doing so, because I though they contained my ngf files.
Unfortunately, it turned out that those files were actually stored elsewhere.
I didn't backup that folder though.

I was ...

Re: clearing go library - bargain

There are some that I am interested in.
But maybe it's best to just send me an e-mail, so that I know how to contact you.

You live in France, right ? I live in Belgium (shipping will be ok I think).
my address is : bvandenbon at gmail dot com.

Re: Is olive oil OK for caring Slate stones?

I wouldnt use olive oil. Olive oil is likely to give a yellow color to your stones. The whole point is to avoid getting dirt inside the stone. Therefor carwax is a good idea. On the other hand, Use sewing machine oil, only for the slate stones, not for the shell. Sewing machine oil will make them ...

Re: books + board + stones + bowls

It really depends on shipping costs ...
Go books on their own are not that expensive.

Why don't you put all the books on ebay ?

I would split them up though in 3 lots:
- Beginner books:
- Dictionaries
- Asian books

You can still offer combined shipping if somebody wins more than one lot.

Re: Big walls, big moyo --- how to operate?

Hi,
I took a look at the first moves of the game.
Some things do jump out.
I hope this is useful and motivating.

Re: New app for iPad


About the price:
The main reason: 50% of that price tag goes entirely to apple.

All due respect, it's only 30%. I don't see why you need to exaggerate.

*deep sigh*
Looks like I'm a bit off, it's actually 40%. (see screenshot below)
(But you're exaggerating just as much in the other direction ...
