On a rainy day at the office I brought the board out and taught a friend. We can generally fit a full game into an hour. It’s totally worth it for the weird looks everyone gives us.

    Went to the Go institute in Tokyo while on my honeymoon. Got to walk around a bit and go through the museum in the basement. Even got to sit in the title match room. It was awesome

      I visited Kyoto before I knew how to play, and walked past a smoke-filled Go/shogi parlour. My dream is one day to go back there, find the oldest, crustiest player in the room, challenge them to a game, and get demolished.
