Been a while...

It's been a while since the last update. Things have been hectic around here and I have not been able to play much go. I have, on the other hand, been playing quite a bit of High Stakes Poker (tm) and it's been an excellent experience. :) Mostly, this update is to mention a new (?) blog I found over at Sensei's:

MrOoijer Blogs

Very interesting, if only for the remodeling photos. :) His blog also reminds me that I need to find a way to quickly convert SGF files to nice diagram images under unix.

Marathon Go Championship Complete

The 5th Cho Chikun Judan Cup 42.195 Marathon Go Championship is over. I didn't play anywhere near as much as I had hoped and I finished up in 68th place with 72 games played. The top player actually managed to play 652 games in 42 days. Yikes! High-kyu buddy Zero9090 did us all proud by finishing in 16th place with 207 games. If he had not played so often on KGS during the same time he certainly would have placed higher.

I look forward to next year's event!
