i_love_burritos Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Just looked at the Wikipedia page and wow. Looks very complicated. I'm a big fan of Othello [or Reversi] so I imagine picking it up wouldn't be too hard. I'm going to try playing it soon. Looks like alot of fun [time].

yuriqiu Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 My grandpa taught me how to play back when I was living in China. If you would like a match I would be happy to play you =). There aren't many Go players in the US as far as I know. PS: I saw an episode of Hikaru no Go with a couple of friends once. Ended up spending the rest of the day teaching them how to play. It's an extremely fun game ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be mind blowing when you first look at it, but once you get the general idea, its not to hard. Try to pick it up and see what happenes ;) My grandpa taught me how to play back when I was living in China. If you would like a match I would be happy to play you =). There aren't many Go players in the US as far as I know. Thats awsome. Once I get home, a match would sound great, see you then :thumbsup: [hide=Quotes]Albel/JustinAlbel doesn't say anything anymore, just comes in, leaves an arrow and vanishes into the night :(Probablypractising some euphoniumYou nearly had me fooled, you fooler youEuphonium/10.9/10.

The basic principle is very simple, surround the other color with your color and you can remove them from the board. Everything else on that page are specific scenarios that you will probably see a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napalm Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 As Adrenal mentioned, it looks very simillar to Othello, and well... I never ever won a match of Othello and this looks more complicated. But I guess I could give it a Go (pun intended :lol: ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l0rd Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I have a nice wooden Go set with a few hundred of those pebbles, but I never bothered to learn how to play it. I got it from my grandfather.

If you have more territory then your opponet, you win. The stones you capture add to your score. it is simple, its the stragey you play, to attack, defend, and capture your opponets stone, that makes it difficult. I have a nice wooden Go set with a few hundred of those pebbles, but I never bothered to learn how to play it. I got it from my grandfather. Thats cool I would kill to have a wooden Go set. But they can cost at least 100$ :x [hide=Quotes]Albel/JustinAlbel doesn't say anything anymore, just comes in, leaves an arrow and vanishes into the night :(Probablypractising some euphoniumYou nearly had me fooled, you fooler youEuphonium/10.9/10.
