Weiqi komi
Hello and welcome Lionel :)
That's a very... good question !
Actually I thought it was the more 'organic' (like this game) way. But it seems to be a large debate, without a clear response.
I suggest all go players to read this article : http://senseis.xmp.net/?Komi
Feel free to give me your opinion about that. Thanks in advance.

Go rules (playing rules)
Hello Don.
I just updated the 'Help' page, to find easily the good links.
Playing rules for Go (2006 september 16) : "Rules for Go are chinese rules, as defined by the Chinese Weiqi Association. (...) Scoring method is area scoring with chinese counting. Positional superko rule apply. Komi is 7.5 points."

"pass" move not shown
Hello.
I just passed in a Go game and the "pass" move doesn't appear in the list of moves.
Oh, by the way, couldn't we have a small sgf link for go games?

Thanks,
Claude.

Go sites
For fast games, a "real time" server is best, e.g. KGS (http://www.gokgs.com/).
A great resource is the Go wiki at http://senseis.xmp.net/

Chess & Go terms
Question : Is there an equivalent word at Go for "zugzwang", "zeitnot" and all other chess terms ? .. Actually there are many more Go terms, so what would be the equivalent words at chess ? .. It could be interesting to make such parallels between the games to point their differences.

MoGo wins ! (estimated 2 dans)
I just read it in the American Go E-Journal, MoGo computer program defeated Myungwan Kim 8P by 1.5 points in a 9-stone game billed as “Humanity’s Last Stand?”
The professional player estimated MoGo’s current strength at “two or maybe three dan”, “made some 5-dan moves” (the program used 800 processors, at 4.7 Ghz, 15 Teraflops on a borrowed European supercomputer)
Strangely, Kim easily won two blitz games with 9 stones and 11 stones and lost one with 12 stones and 15 minutes by 3.5 points before this one hour game.

DeepZen reached 9 dan (Go)
Everyone is talking about AlphaGo / AlphaZero but I just realized that another Go program reached 9 dan in 2017 : Zen or Deep Zen
It won a computer tournament and beat number 1 japanese player Iyama Yuta 9d, that seems quite significant.

Pawns are born free, yet they are everywhere in chains. (Rick Kennedy)
In life, as in Chess, one's own Pawns block one's way. A man's very wealth, ease, leisure, children, books, which should help him to win, more often checkmate him. (Charles Buxton)
I have added these principles to the law: get the Knights into action before both Bishops are developed. (Emanuel Lasker)
