Hello

Post by Andrew J. Bailey »

I'm still fairly new to Go, but I'm really enjoying the game a lot. I have been using the book, Go Fundamentals by Shigemi Kishikawa, and playing on IGS, KGS and my iPod.

Welcome, Andrew. :) You may also consider "The Second Book of Go", by Richard Bozulich.
If you have not finished 100 games yet, try to do it as quickly as your time allows you.
Then, you can ask for reviews on KGS or here on the forum. Good luck. :)

For one relatively new player to another, welcome to the forum! Can be a little bit of a quick developing obsession, can't it? I myself have spent more time on KGS than I've ever spent on IRC, and even Facebook anymore.

Hopefully we'll cross paths, in a friendly manner, across the go ban, one of these days.

Best to you, and enjoy your stay!
