[Seattle Go Center] Saturday self-pair; Computer Go group; Clocks fall back before the Sunday tournament

Hello Go fans,

A few more items.


4-dan seeks similar for rated games Saturday
Jeremiah Donley says he's leaving Seattle soon, and he'd like to get in some self-paired AGA-rated games on Saturday. He's rated 3.9 in the AGA -- almost 4 dan -- and he's looking for games at 4 stones or less. So, players 2k to 7d, if you have time on Saturday, come to the Go Center and give Jeremiah some games to remember. He says he'll be there about 1 PM - 8 PM.


Computer Go meetup at the Go Center?
Eric Downes is interested in forming a self-study group to learn how to program AIs for playing Go. He's had early access to a book that will be available in December, teaching how to program Go-playing AIs in Python, and he's pretty excited about it. Show of hands -- how many of you would be interested in attending? Wait, I can't see you. If you're interested, email me so we have a rough idea.


Clocks fall back Sunday - Tournament players get an extra hour to sleep!
Our monthly ratings tournament is Sunday, November 4. Registration is 10:00 AM - 10:45 AM; but hours before that, we'll be changing off Daylight Savings Time. At 2 AM on Sunday, most modern computers will automatically switch to 1 AM. So, we get an extra hour to sleep before the tournament!


See you soon at the Go Center,

Mike Malveaux
