I am amazed about how there is virtually no lag when playing. Together with the voiced byo-yomi countdown it is a really nice experience to play.
On KGS, there is lots of lagging. In byo-yomi, you constantly wonder: will he accept my move in time or might I lose on time ...
How do you like Tygem?

They are certainly much more aggressive but leave a lot of weaknesses behind. The challenge is exploiting them for hunting the hunter. Similar style to that of wbaduk but very much different from KGS.
Interesting. I'm 4k on KGS and seem to waver between 10k and 7k on Tygem.
My winning/losing streak also seems to depend on whether I use the Automatch function, or I answer someone else's request.
When I use the automatch function, the players often turn up to be much stronger in my experience.
It feels like the sandbaggers are waiting in ambush for someone to offer them a game and then... KABOUM!
... or maybe I'm simply imagining the whole thing

I don't know, I see that I sent that post almost a year ago and I play very very rarely recently. Maybe I got a wrong impression based on few games.
If you say no, Elwood and I will come here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day of the week.
