You're really going to have to try harder. :) I enjoy Go, but am impossibly bad. I mean that literally: I was playing Go online regularily for several months, and was still 28 kyu. I was informed (in a friendly fashion) by the person teaching me that that was impossible: everyone progresses to about 25 kyu over their first few games, but I had played dozens by that time. :) -Robin On Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 05:42:20PM -0400, Luke Bergen wrote: > wow.
