I have created a new community as I recently saw there isn’t an existing community for go, the ancient Chinese board game of strategy.
Hi everyone, I’m a 5kyu on OGS. If you wanna have a game, find me with username Seferi. https://www.online-go.com
just made and account! found out it exist such a great place and now after 5 minutes i am already so rewarded! i love go, i love it for its stance of crushing all my expectations of what could possiby happen and making me feel like a small part in an infinite universe of possibilities
Sweet, I love go even though I’m awful at it. Need some good book / learning app recommends.
I love it too - I’ve actually been teaching westerners Go for seventeen years now - but I’ve done very little playing outside of this context. I’m not very good either :p
those who can’t do, teach
(ps. i think the idiom is bs. being able to teach is a gift and i’m sure you’re way better at the game than you think :sparkling heart:)
I’d like to say I’m competent in the game but I don’t really understand joseki and couldn’t compete with a real go player. I play on the Kiseido Go Server sometimes but I don’t usually do very well :p
Also thank you! I’ve easily taught more than a hundred people to play go. I used to teach a class regularly at my university’s Japan festival.
I have been planning to learn this game for quite a while.
I am a beginner and I started learning it back in 2019’s spring, but then I got sidetracked because of exams after a while The thing is, I had never before felt so much enjoyment while learning a game.
The funny thing is that I was never a big fan of strategy board games like chess, but for some reason, I was hooked to learning Go, and i really want to get back into it.
I will sub to your community and hopefully get back into it. :)
