I've been teaching myself Go, for the past hour and a half.

Now I want to play someone, and practice. A lot.

I want to play Go and Chess, as much as I can, when I have free time...

Man, it's been a while since I last played Go... I'm super-rusty. That's how I met one of my best friends up here, though - he invited me to join the Go Club.

Been playing online. There's some really awesome tutorials.

Just make sure you're playing with people, for the most part. We can teach a computer to beat the tar out of a human at chess, but for some reason as far as I know there's never been an artificial intelligence that plays Go remotely like a good human opponent.

Granted, at my level, it doesn't really make as much of a difference yet...

It's mainly tutorials, and allowing ou to play against yourself. Fun stuff, actually.

The Interactive Way To Go (http://playgo.to/interactive/).

Check it out.

my third son very much wants someone to play Go with him as well as chess. You're welcome to bring your game here anytime.

They're hella expensive if you get a real board (as opposed to like a cardboard board and some random stones).

Yeah. I'm thinkin' the latter.

hmmm...

I never got very good at Go, mostly due to a lack of time to devote to the art. But I will gladly put the smack down on you in chess at any time.

I'm thinking of re-learning chess, from the ground up, too.

I've challenged you, and my Flist at large, to chess multiple times.

So, when your free time matches my free time, the challenge still stands.

And I'll raise you a "when we are in the same room."
