So you think you're smart? Or maybe you enjoy chess? Or maybe you're smart AND enjoy chess!
Then come play Go with us. I'm sure some of you have seen it on OGN streams sometimes. It's considerd to be the worlds oldest boardgame and it is in a way similar to chess and checkers.
So now that you've read this excellent information, where do you start? Well here are some usful links:

http://playgo.to/interactive/TOC.html - Where you learn (interactive tutorial)
#TLgo - the IRC channel

http://igo-kisen.hp.infoseek.co.jp/topics.html
http://gobase.org/
http://gogameworld.com/

Come on into the IRC channel and we'll help you/play you. We have a room on KGS, but since it isn't official it's not a sure thing to be up. But try looking under new rooms and look for "Teamliquid". If you can't get on IRC you can always ask for a game here!

Add the link to get igowin
Btw if you want to play on kgs, log in as a guest, then register that nick using the in-game menu.
We've been playing 9x9 all day today just to get warmed up. Eventually, people will be playing 19x19 I'm sure. |

Our rating system is actually pretty generous just so you know... we are assuming most people interested in this thread are low on the spectrum of go players XD
edit: 3Lions anyone who really sucks should play anyone from the newbie list and it will be fine :DLast edit: 2009-03-15 07:59:42 |

Never played Go; don't know any of the rules. But I'm an avid chess player,
Maybe I'll take this oppotunity to have a look at Go |

| I've learned playing Go before, but I never really got how the scoring (territory) system worked. Anyone care to elaborate? |

I'm really tempted to play but I don't think I have the time. Be interested to see how this turns out.
(My passion for this game stems from watching Hikaru no go!) |

I would add this to the link. It contains many articles.
Furthermore, I play on KGS under hasuprotos (no 2nd s because of the 10 char limit  ) and I am a noobie (just got done losing my first game to abydos1!) and am trying to read up :D

Hey FA, I know you played awhile back and I'm just wondering if you still play and what your rank is/was. I know you could own the vast majority of us but it would still be interesting to see how horridly you take advantage of all the mistakes we make |
