A β€œsnapback” decides the game! If W plays at K9 to capture the marked stone, B plays again at L9 to capture W's group. W resigned here. #SickGoTakedowns #ThatWasASickGoTakedown #SickGoTakedownsForBeginnerGoPlayers #weiqi #baduk

B puts W in atari, forcing the stone's own capture. B will "snap back" to capture W's group by playing in the same spot.

I have this productivity strategy where, if I get my whole checklist done before midnight, I let myself play an hour of a 3D game

ME: Ah, the game of Go! The only thing that can flood my brain with so much information, the world around me disappears~ REAL-TIME MARKET DATA: *crashes through the wall like the kool-aid man*

If you need a mental health break, I have some nice relaxing computer games to recommend:

Excited that, due to Netflix algorithms, there will be more shows about getting wrecked and playing board games

Like it's a normal Thursday afternoon and I can just casually get demolished by a 9-dan and see a full game review

Since the stock market has been in the news lately, my game is relevant again

Huge territory and a game-deciding seki on this Christmas Eve day #SickGoTakedowns #HolidayGoTakedowns #BrutalSeki #weiqi #baduk

Teaching game.

If I streamed a few games of Go, would you stop by? 10 seconds a move, light soundtrack, live heart rate monitor of course

Updated my stock trading game with new market events & winning conditions.

Will be doing my first foray into β€œstreaming” this Thursday on @FlyknifeComics' channel as we play a game we both love and despise... RIVEN THE SEQUEL TO MYST

This game is extremely good.

This by-the-book takedown ended the game, but the colossal seki is the true winner here. #SickGoTakedowns #ColossalSeki #weiqi #baduk

We got most of our Amiga software from magazine coverdisks. Demos, shareware, utilities, etc. A 1992 issue of CU Amiga came with Qbic, a Q*Bert clone. Deeply satisfying gameplay; rhythmic, colourful, each level a distinctive challenge.

My favourite kind of games are the ones that require you to consult a fan-run wiki.

A sneaky late-game takedown, but unnecessary alongside a territory so monstrous #SickGoTakedowns #MonstrousGoTerritories #weiqi #baduk

I came here to drink tomato juice and play Go. And I've only played 4 games of Go

Plan coming together for #halcon2018. Tons of giveaways, a new game on the old wolfOS terminal, and pay-what-you-can for books, all weekend. My accountant is NOT happy about this con. @halcon_scificon

*every time I get an idea for a new game* I wonder how much of the engine I can implement before I lose interest and back-burner this for 2 years

Was thinking about classic game β€œPathways Into Darkness” today & how I'd probably never play it again, but turns out there's a FREE OS X PORT on the app store

If you like @kcgreenn and also factory-based puzzle/skill games, I can recommend Factory Hiro by some cool devs @radzonegames #NotAPaidTweet #IsGoodGame

Crushing late-game resignation. The ko is too miserable to even attempt. #SickGoTakedowns #MiserableKo #weiqi #baduk
