Re: Nihon Ki-in Summer Go Camp 2019

I've chatted with people who went to Kansai Kiin and they're both great. At the time I went, Kansai Kiin's was longer which was a plus. It also ends with the Japan Go Congress which is probably also nice.

The jp Amazon doesn’t deliver overseas right
They do for books. For other things I've used tenso as a reshipper. For crazystone, I've just used download from the company's web page, and it worked fine.

Re: New Hikaru no Go series with real actors...?

This is an old article from May. Basically, it seemed there was some talk of doing a net show in China based on Hikaru no Go. I'm guessing it didn't go anywhere, but who knows.

Re: GoUniverse (New KGS client)

Is there any plan to make GoUniverse HTML5-compliant, browser-independent, add-on-free, java-free, like shin.GoKGS.com ?

I had such a plan, but last year I had too little time. I hope this winter i will have more free time for further developing. Btw GOUniverse is already HTML5-compliant ...

Re: Was the ear-reddening move a divine move?

I have Yoda Norimoto's book where he kind of repeats the move as being not that interesting or great.

Re: WBaduk client problem

wbaduk's english client and site is basically dead. You have to go through and get a Korean or Japanese account (or other?) if you really want to get on.

You don't need a Korean or Japanese account, you just need to log onto the Asian servers rather than the World server.

Sorry, I read a while ...

It's available as a kindle book from Amazon or a PDF from mycom.

Re: Following Iyama Yuta (no world ranking discussions)

There was a big go event called the Hankyu Igo Festival in Tokyo. I don't have time to translate it now, but there was a funny back and forth between Iyama and Shibano.
