Tea and Go

by GoTea » Mar 8th, '09, 18:30

Being both a tea and Go addict myself, I was wondering who out there shared both of these joys. I have noticed quite a few people with Go related usernames e.g. tenuki.

Wow! I just went to KGS and read the rules and did the exercises. Looks very interesting. I had never heard of that game before.

I've only played Go against the computer, it was hardly any fun and really frustrating, I believe the real thing could be much much better

I played this a long time ago and LOVED it. I've always wanted to get back into it again! Thanks for the links :)

No problem, here is info about the Buffalo Go Club from the US Go Association's website.

Playing online is fun, but playing in person is better. :)
