First game on my new wood burned bass wood go board, with dual convex pieces
Discussion
Love it š
Did you play you against you?
I started a local go club, so I have real human people to play
Nice. 13x13 is a good board size.
9x9 games seem so restrictive that the games lack a ton of variation, especially when accounting for equivalent flips and rotations.
I made a 9x9 out of clay like 20 years ago. It is modeled as a courtyard contained by 4 āGreat Wall of Chinaā wall sections with towers at the 4 corners. I made it to be a ābeginnerās boardā that easily leads to discussion of how Weiqi/Go is related to the GWoC.
19x19 takes much longer to get through. Itās great for veteran vs veteran games but for novices and journeymen, 13x13 is a much better board size.
Beautiful board. It's rare I play on a physical board because of lack of local players to play with. Tried to get my kid into it but there weren't any skins he could buy so it didn't keep his attention...
