Re: Happy April Fools
Well, according to a post some dude named rberenguel posted over the Nordic Go Academy site, 9x9 go has been solved. I won't spoil how they solved it, though. It involves the University of Brightloch and one of the most powerful brains in the known animal in the universe (one of the few that can walk even when beheaded.)
