Does anyone else here play go? It's a strategy game that is older than chess, and a great deal harder to master.

        Yes, really.

        Not very good. I think it may be impacted a lot by the fact that I am always fried in the head from so much work, and as you are well aware, being able to focus is a key ingredient with Go.

        I have played on the main site a few times, but honestly, one of the things that really grabs me about Go, is being able to fill the stones between my fingers. It really helps me focus my mental energy into that piece, and how it is going to ripple through the possiblities on the board when it goes down.

        I lose that in online play, and the whole game loses it's atmosphere for me. Therefore, I don't play online near as much as I play in person (which lately is none on both sides).

          I actually agree with you a lot on that. I have a go xoard, but since I am the best among my friends (read: only one that actually cares about it) they usually refuse to play me, so I've had to turn to the internet.

            Seriously I don't. I played it a few times but the rules always changed when I played them because I payed with people who never wanted to lose & didn't want me to learn to play correctly. So I have no idea.

        I don't know off hand. I don't have it with me. It's at my moms. I think it is Mill Borne but it has Go on the title, so I don't know if thats because it's all in French or.... I don't know. I'll have to look next time I'm over there.

    I've played it, but was never any good. Tried to find a good PC version to practice on, but unlike Chess, it was hard to find any good, free ones.

    All in all, I prefer Chess, simply because I find it easier to play.
