Don't waste time reinventing the wheel; there are several well-established "environments" of clients and servers where you can play Go. English-speakers tend to favour KGS which is a "closed" proprietary set-up, but it is free, and easy to install and get on-line. IGS/Pandanet is another system, which is "open" in the sense that you can obtain many different clients that conform to the IGS protocols, and many Go-playing programs incorporate a built-in client. IGS is a little less friendly to people who only read and write English. Finally there is Tygem, which I don't really recommend unless you are competent in Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. If you prefer to play in a slower-paced "correspondence Go by e-mail" style, there is Dragon Go Server, which has a web interface.

Zero is a perfect square, so Carl is right anyway. :wink:

--- Quote from: Carl-E on 30 Sep 2012, 17:40 ---Method, checking profiles?  Really?   That's like looking in the back of the book...
--- End quote ---
Well yeah, I only checked after I did the problem by myself first, to see if I was right.  And yeah, Ptharien is right, I just figured "a square and a year" meant "the next square".

DSL:
But all he said was, he was becoming a square. He didn't say mathematical or geometric square. Maybe he meant, like, square, man.

Method of Madness:
(Ignoring the fact that she draws a non-square rectangle)
