Re: Still Alive...

Thank goodness my son hasn't heard about those. I don't think I could handle it!

Re: Still Alive...

Minecraft...? What's that?



Just kidding. OMG, I wish they'd stop. I know too much about creepers as it is.
I did make this cake for my son's birthday last year, though (just the topper)

Re: Still Alive...

My 9yo son gets bored if it's not a video game. We're focusing on books for now, but the stones got put away for a long time because of the younger ones. All of them had trouble with order of moves and they all still do. I should check with my son to see if he wants to be serious about playing... I ...

Re: Still Alive...

It's about 2 years per kid, but my 9 year old takes a lot less out of me than the other two ;)

Re: Still Alive...

I'm even more still alive now...
I'm playing go (after a long hiatus), mostly involved at the club level (1-2 games a month).
I finished that masters of science in 2011...
Also had a 3rd kid...
and lots of life changes. ;D

I guess I don't really want life to slow down.

Sure, Koosh, I'd be happy to ...

Re: The Importance of Sleep

Sleep is overrated.
I will be getting a lot more of it soon!

Re: Kindle Goban

Sorry for the topic res, but this is awesome -- might make me upgrade my K1 when the time comes.
Any chance of a tsumego app like uliGo?

I do have content... I converted the Cho Chikun's Encyclopedia of L&D books from http://tsumego.tasuki.org to Kindle (mobi) format. They are all ...

"Dating Fails" mod

I found this picture over at failblog.... and had to fix it.
I did it quick - shrinking the ear reddening move doesn't look great.

Re: Amazon Fire and KGS

My problem with rooting is that I supposedly lose access to the Amazon services (Prime streaming video and MP3), which I have and use... so unless that is resolved I'll probably keep the device locked up.

I don't understand why they don't just allow Fire uses to install the Google store. That seems ...

Would it be possible to get Tapatalk enabled for this forum?
(Would the go diagrams appear correctly?)

I've been using it on my Kindle Fire and it's a pretty good app for forum crawling.

Re: Amazon Fire and KGS

+1 Kindle Fire user... I just got one for Christmas.

I read this thread about a month ago, but I can't remember if it was mentioned... $200 is a lot different than $400+ This was absolutely the #1 reason I asked for the Fire. (#2 is due to Amazon media).

The IGS app (beta) does work and needs to ...

Re: I h8 Tsumego

I was not a fan of tsumego at DDK. I tried (especially Davies' L&D, others) and the only ones I liked even remotely were the Korean Problem Academy's early sets (1-3 move solutions - you can find them on GoBase, but it requires a paid account).

This all changed around 5k. Suddenly I learned how to ...

Re: Picture Question / Go playing room

Thanks! I only wish I had my good camera back when I was travelling to Taiwan often. The P+S I had wasn't too bad for its time (2002, perhaps), but I really wish I had my DSLR.

This stop in Tokyo was actually a lay-over from Taiwan -- I figured it was my last (and possibly only) chance to see any ...
