I bought All about life and death vol 1 for 7.50 GBP when I knew they'd advertised it elsewhere at 75 GBP and didn't correct them ... Go really does corrupt the young (ish). Actually still feel a little bothered by it over a year later.

If you ask SE whether you should continue your second malkovitch against MagicWand I'll be happy to forgive you.

I probably own more go books than most people own go stones

I do tsumego like other people do sudoku. (In fact, I enjoy doing problems much more than actually playing the game, and rarely play compared to doing tsumego.)

Half of the time I spend "studying go" I'm thinking about an L19 post.

I swear at the computer screen when things go bad during a game. :shock:

guilty of the night time in korea, but being in europe, i don't have much a choice (still, being 2d there seems so wrong...)

-Playing weak bots for easy wins.
-Using SE in games on KGS via offline game view.
-Occasionally looking at a joseki dictionary while playing.
-Not always saying thanks at the end of a game (I feel worse about this than anything else.)
-Expecting to win games I know I shouldn't and then getting mad when I lose.
-Sometimes refusing games if I expect to lose.
-Hardly ever playing weaker players.
-Cheating on Go with Starcraft: Brood War

Not sure I follow this one: are you saying you played out a situation offline to create the impression you had mad counting skillz? Or claimed a win you possibly didn't deserve?

Yeah, I'm mostly here for the off-topic, or at least casual, conversations.

So do the people how like problems more than playing have any tips for those of us who can't commit to doing tsumego (like me?) What kind of problems do you do?
