Go Seigen new book

A bit of regret, as I without bought the weiqi book sport during the bookshop trip. I saw the book, flip over and more or less know about the content, one section is very interesting, it is about the evolution of the weiqi during ancient, use a lot of visual proof to link weiqi to yiyang and yiching stuff. The section is good, but remain of the content is more or less duplicate to those what I have, go seigen history, photo, and his theory on the "harmony".

I just pick time to search limkimkeong and found out a lot of my old website and have some link from overseas on certain article I made during past, now read back it is interesting. From the past I made both chinese and english content, and end out difficult to decide which to keep and which way to follow. Follow the flow should be the approach, just like play weiqi, got to "cut lost or willing to cut lost in section" to gain the overall edge on the entire situation.

If got time, may consider reorganize old content and new old to invent better theme for the blog and website. Website is take more time to maintenance, but look back it is the most unique if can do it in consistent manner. O(- _-)O

re touching my weiqi set

today clean up house and include my book room, which make me retouch of my weiqi sets. I have sit and table weiqi, I handmade and I import from Taiwan. Beside that, have pocket weiqi (magnec) and starter kit. Really I am very long without touching them, even so from time to time have games with my 4 years old kid (sorry, just become 5 years old), I do not involve in serious play thinking.

Have lot of books and ebook in hand, yet to have times for serious on it. From now, become business 9 dan is more important that play weiqi become 9 dan, since I make living from what I service people, not from play weiqi.

Different people play weiqi with different motivation in their mind, for me, it is now like a skill - mental skill set how to plan, execute and combat skill set in mind. It is good game, compare with chess (either chinese or international), it is even more strategic than them in the reason that every stone being equal, just see where you want to put and invest. Very similiar in real life situation, where you invest and spend time and effort determine the choice you have. We ourself create the destiny we have, by our own move one step at a time.
