April 6, 2010 meeting

We had a bunch of people there last night - 15 0r 16 altogether. Spring is really bringing out the go people.

March 17 & 23 meetings

things are settling down at the new place with about 8-10 people every week. We've had some new people coming down from wu dao kou - if everyone came at the same time, a lot of money could be saved on going back and forth. I made a (very bad...) automatic shape annotation program available at http://kgsgambler.fuseki.net/ - upload your sgf and it'll make inline images of every move of your game, matched against the pattern file at http://kgsgambler.fuseki.net/gopatterns.txt
I also made some random-play go videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/zhuzhou of various sizes. It's pretty cool how go just keeps cycling on. It's clear that go is alllll about eyes.

March 9, 2010 meeting

It was freeeezing outside, but people still came out to the meeting downstairs in the Saddle Cantina.

Jacek increased his lead on the go club ladder... We had a visit from Ma Rui, 7d go teacher. About 8 people came, and we were there until after 12.

March 2, 2010 meeting

We met in the downstairs room at the Saddle. This is a great, great place for the club. Very quiet, not smoky, and private. The food is good. Apparently there will be specials for the club starting next week, also.

Played some games, and at the end we reviewed some dragongoserver games.

Beijing Go Club is back! - March 1 2010

People are making their way back to beijing, and the club is picking up again. Last week we had about 10 people. We've also got some time-lapse videos up on the home page - more will be made, with better camera angles...

The club is still going on and will meet every week at Danger Doyle's. I'm on vacation and will be back in feb. Jacek & Bryan will be taking care of the ladder. -Ernie

November 24, 2009

Good meeting yesterday. The ladder is shaping up. Lots of people are going to be gone for the holidays, but the club will continue. We may drop below 10 but there will be people around. I'll hand over the email list so we have continuous coverage.
